Bright and beautiful, seventeen-year-old Adelaida (Laura Osma) lives with her parents Lena (Maruia Shelton), an event planner, and Francisco (Francisco Zaldua), a sculptor and art teacher. Together, the trio enjoy a comfortable domestic life in Bogotá—until the cracks begin to show through the veneer of this picture-perfect family. With most of the housekeeping and parenting duties falling on her, the already stressed Lena struggles to fulfill the demanding role of working mother. Meanwhile, at the peak of her teen angst, Adelaida is facing her own identity crisis. When tragedy strikes, the shaken family must confront their biggest struggle yet.
