When Vera was young, she gave up her baby for adoption. Now, years later, she tries to navigate Spain’s callous bureaucracy trying to find her biological son. Tenaciously, she uncovers Egoz, her son, and his adopted mother, Cora, and their lives will never be the same.

Emerging from a life of chaos, Vera would love to see her biological son, at the very least just to see his face. But Spain’s labyrinthian adoption system seems calculated to thwart her quest, stating that they’ve “lost the files” and dismissing her needs. When Vera finally connects with her 18-year-old biological son, Egoz, and his loving mother, Cora, the three finally meet by the banks of the Douro River to learn about one another. Víctor Iriarte's visionary debut feature is a mysterious neo-noir experience.
