Seven-year-old Vera lives in the big city but adores spending the holidays in her grandparent’s town and particularly in their deserted tobacco barn. Nieves, a teenager native from there whose father forces her to help out at the family’s land, can’t avoid but feeling caged. The two girls, driven by the sense of adventure and the need to find oneself respectively, will be connected to a magical creature that will change the way they see their own reality.

[Filmin] The director joins the trend of new filmmakers of being inspired by their childhood to tell a rural story with the usual contrast between a character who arrives from the city and another who wants to escape from the countryside. Using elements of magical realism, it works better in the former than in the latter, because it fails to smoothly incorporate the fantastical tone with the realistic description. The use of non-professional actors doesn't help either, not because they don't know how to perform, but because they are not well directed, nor its resemblance to other films like "Alcarràs."
