Soumaya grew up in Barcelona, and the emotional distance between her and her mother, who is originally from Algeria, often feels vast. That tension is evident in their somewhat prickly conversation about praying and Ramadan. Things shift, however, when Soumaya decides to visit her grandmother in Algeria.

Dolores, in her 50s, a hermit caring for her ailing mother and aunt in a decaying Dominican estate, yearns to escape her isolated life. When a long-lost aunt returns, she stirs up painful memories, forcing Dolores and the elder women to confront their generational traumas in a surreal world haunted by mongrel dogs.
