A tender, class-conscious drama about a boy navigating fractured family bonds and unexpected kindness across social divides.

Eric, a ten-year-old boy, finds himself living overnight with Gabriel, his father whom he barely knows. Seeing that the man is having a hard time building a relationship with his son and staying afloat financially, Maria Isabel, the upper-class woman Gabriel works for as a carpenter, decides to take the boy under her wing.
