A deeply intimate portrait of a woman confronting mortality while reconnecting with her roots and community in the shadow of historical trauma.

As her cancer spreads, Noelia's ultimate decision is to return to her native Vieques, Puerto Rico, and claim her freedom to decide her own fate. She reunites with her friends and family, who are still dealing with the contamination of the U.S. Navy after 60 years of military practices.
