Mauricio has inherited his father's house and travels there to fix its neglect, with the support of his partner Ana. Mauricio harbors deep anger towards his father for abandoning his mother, and his attitude clashes with Ana, who tries to be understanding and patient with Mauricio's difficult behavior despite indirectly receiving his anger. Gradually, they both have to face the question of whether it is love that binds them together or rather, a profound fear of loneliness.
