A mother-daughter relationship is complicated by unprocessed grief and financial strife.

Aragon, Spain. After living through her parents' divorce, Mar arrives in the summer in a mysterious town where she is fascinated by the horrifying stories about the Civil War and its terrible consequences told by members of a group of teenagers who seem to live according to rules that are strange to her.

Today is the premiere day, and Artur, son of a bourgeois family and dancer in a contemporary dance company, acts like the prince in a kingdom tailored to his own image. Everything changes when his father is arrested for corruption in a real estate scandal. From that moment on, Artur must decide between protecting his family by covering up for his father or facing the consequences of losing his privileges.

Ade has suffered from a rare condition known as Blink Arrest Syndrome since she was a child—a disorder that leaves her unable to open her eyes at will, sometimes for five or six hours at a time. Now, at seventeen, she's in the midst of her most intense episode yet: three days without opening her eyes. Told in her own voice, the story follows Ade as she traces her journey from the first diagnosis to the present moment, pausing along the way to reflect on her relationship with Elira. In revisiting these pivotal experiences, she searches for meaning—something that might help her understand her condition and, with any luck, finally open her eyes.
