In a small village in La Mancha and the bustling suburbs of Madrid, two sisters, Raimunda and Sole, grapple with the memory of their deceased parents, whose secrets and unresolved issues haunt their daily lives.

After a series of tragic events, she is forced to tap into her resourcefulness and strength to protect her daughter and maintain some semblance of normalcy.

Meanwhile, Sole runs a clandestine hair salon out of her apartment, still mourning the loss of her mother, Irene, in a fire four years earlier. The sudden and mysterious apparition of what appears to be her mother's ghost brings the past surging back, compelling the sisters to confront their history. As the two women navigate their complicated realities, they unwittingly peel back layers of family secrets that lead them on a journey of discovery and reconciliation.
