Pedro is Mallorcan, born to a mother from Burgos and a father from Mallorca. Due to his distant relationship with his father, Pedro doesn't fully master Mallorcan as a language. He turns to the works of Damià Huguet to remember his father, as only his poems can fill the void left by his death. The poet's words transport Pedro to his childhood and his roots, even though many of the words are unknown to him, despite them belonging to his language. This becomes the driving force behind the protagonist's search for his own identity, his origins, what it means to be a man, father-son relationships, collective identity, and "mallorquinness". Pedro constantly questions the emotions stirred by Huguet's poetry, and, most importantly, who he is and where he belongs.

A documentary about the weight of filming pain, the guilt of those who observe it, and the responsibility of showing it. Based on a shoot in Gaza ten years ago, the director revisits discarded images, direct looks at the camera, and uncomfortable moments that question his profession, his vocation, and the transformative power of images in a world insensitive to their overexposure. That gaze continues to resonate years later, amid helplessness, memory, and denunciation.
