A comedic character study about a woman breaking free from stagnation and small-town constraints through determination and self-discovery.

Encarna, a thirtysomething girl of Móstoles (Madrid) is trapped in a life without changes, at the side of her lifelong boyfriend and with a job absent of incentives. Stigmatized by the famous Spanish sketch of the "Empanadillas de Móstoles", Encarna looks for a way to escape her boring life.
