A contemplative gaze toward the town of Contumazá, in the northern highlands of Peru. Beginning with a murder that occurred a century ago involving the director’s great grandfather, the film reflects on the passage of time through the daily routine of her mother, conversations about an event that is almost forgotten, and the faces of the townspeople. The landscapes and traditions of the town gradually reveal the beauty, solitude, and poetry of its inhabitants.
