A couple take a vacation to a remote island - their last holiday together before they become parents. Soon after their arrival, they notice that no adults seem to be present - an observation that quickly presents a nightmarish reality.

In a town in Veracruz being buffeted by cold northerly winds, seven men and woman start out on paths that will change their lives. A well-intentioned Christian gives in to the temptation of a young widow: a mayor succumbs to his greed: an elderly lady adopts a young burn victim: a doctor breaks away from a past that had hardened her heart: an old priest comes and goes trying to understand and a lost poet rediscovers his capacity to love and write. All these passions come together in a yearning to give meaning to their lives.
