The story

On a secluded farmhouse in Castile and León, Luis is reunited with his estranged daughter, Elisa, after a 20-year separation. On the farmhouse, Luis writes what sometimes appears to be both an autobiography and a novel. The book is played out with memories of the past, such as when Luis walked out on his family and is mixed with fantasies about Elisa's adult life and her failed marriage.
