Julio, a 35-year-old man, returns after a breakup to his grandparents’ house in Mbiguá, a peninsula across from the city of Asunción. There, within walls heavy with silence, he discovers his grandmother’s diaries and takes refuge in her memories. As he tries to heal, he begins a bond with Amelia, a 29-year-old woman, and faces the choice of staying and clinging to the past, or moving forward with his life.
