A first-time female director frames in close-up shots the weary, yet luminous faces of six retired women who visit on an everyday basis a dark theatre in Spain, Argentina, and Uruguay. A tender debut about the timeless stuff that dreams are made of, and about cinema as a ritual that transgresses solitude.
