The ruins of a falling apart care system frame the stories of two women whose job is to always be. Wait. Always.

How many times have you called someone to fix a breakdown and found a woman at the door? Probably not many. Irantzu Varela and Andrea Momoitio are two trailblazing journalists who decide to transform a century-old bridal atelier into the city's first feminist cultural center: La Sinsorga. They aim to complete the renovation using only women and use the project to create a database of women in the heavily male-dominated construction sector. Five female workers are tasked with rebuilding this former symbol of romantic love. Over the course of a year, we witness the transformation unfold through a narrative where the everyday realities of construction coexist with a performative universe, revealing their fears and desires.
