Las Palmas is a town that had promising beginnings due to the installation on the site of the Las Palmas sugar mill of the Hardy brothers. Thanks to this establishment, at the end of the 19th century the town became the first town to have an electrical power network in Argentina.

Miriam is now settled in Israel, with a rebuilt life, a family, and the opportunity to slowly build her entire life.

In an attempt to save her life, she expressed remorse at a controversial press conference surrounding the coup d'état.

Sonia is a former militant of the Montoneros. In the 1970s she was a militant in the JP in the western suburbs of Greater Buenos Aires. She begins her journey to the West, to the past, searching and wondering what remains of that revolutionary practice in the very territory where it was tried and failed. But his initial intention fails and he finds, instead, other things: an unexpected balance and demand from the children of that unbeatable generation; the discovery that in the West there were almost no survivors left, due to a particular form of repression; and the most important thing: he discovers his profound need for reflection in order to bring to an end the most intense and tragic stage of his life.

The story of this film begins at the moment when the artist and his work become independent forever. Gorriarena dies and his work begins an existence where the author is not there to explain it, replace it or modify it. The mounting of an exhibition is the excuse to explore both material and ideological decisions that coexist in the work of an artist. The film explores some of these decisions and their results, trying to show which gestures of love, trust, order, admiration or greed it arouses, and in the process tries to find the painter's way and perhaps, only perhaps, to get closer to his truth. A truth that is expressed through colour, critical and biting realism, ironic denunciation and energetic resistance to being "accused" of being a political and social painter.
