Seven-year-old Sol (Naíma Sentíes) spends the day at her grandfather's house, where the family is preparing a surprise party for her terminally ill father. As the day progresses, the family's relationships are put to the test. Shot in a single interior location, the movie takes the viewer inside the delicate family relationships that are soaked in life as well as grief and loss.

The movie is rich in empathetic observations through the eyes of a lonely child. After the party, Sol realizes that her world will never be the same…An admirable role by the debutant Naíma Sentíes.
