The intertwined trajectories of three Cuban women, coming from the same family: Gloria, 93 years old, anchored in Havana, her daughter Glorita, 64 years old, settled in Louisiana and Yilian, 38 years old, settled in Switzerland. The film is built around Yilian Cañizares, her destiny as a little girl passionate about violin, whose life changes after obtaining two scholarships that lead her to Venezuela as a teenager, then to Switzerland as an adult, causing painful family separations, but nourishing an urgent need for professional progress.
