Synopsis

After many years of absence, Valeriano returns to the island he left as a child to bury his father. Upon his arrival, the sad reality of the present is mixed with the joy of his childhood memories: his father’s love and his aunt’s appreciation, and his longing to escape to the ‘Blue Soil’ accompanied by Benicio.
