Every summer, Hugo and Iván, two inseparable 14-year-old friends, keep up a special tradition: hunting fireflies in the woods near their town. This year, however, the woods’ usual tranquility is replaced by the noise of young people flooding the area, drawn by the annual town fair.

María is a six-year-old girl who lives in a coastal town in southeastern Spain. Her cousin Antonio puts the idea of becoming a Dama de la Feria, a beauty queen, into her head. To get the attention of the Festival Committee and be chosen, María must dress up in a flamenco dress. But her mother will not be easy to convince: she knows that her daughter wants more than just a festival dress.
