At the countryside town of Piratini, in the far south of Brazil, an elderly couple has a life filled with everyday activities. In the midst of an ordinary day, they recall the past, their roots, those who are gone and their connection to the southern countryside, in wich they have lived their entire lives.

Two teenagers meet one last time before one of them returns to the countryside she so deeply despises. She takes solace in the promise that her lover will soon come to visit her there. Trapped in darkness, she can do nothing but wait. Time passes—and even after death, her tormented spirit lingers earthbound, longing for the moment the two may finally be together again.
