Oriana Carossa

Upon discovering her grandmother Betty’s poems, Oriana attempts to piece together her image in order to understand her own identity. Delving into her family’s past, she reflects on legacy, family, and absence. What remains of us when we leave?

On a winter afternoon, with a storm about to break, Dani follows her cousins ​​Nora and Inés to a cube-shaped shelter in the middle of the woods. There, they perform a ritual to hold back the rain and save their friend—"the Presence." Dani must follow a set of rules for the ritual to succeed, but the moment Nora sacrifices an earthworm, she can no longer bear it and breaks the cardinal rule: never leave the cube.
