It's 1973, Fernanda is thirteen years old and has embarked on a journey across Colombia to join older friends that are hanging out in Santa Marta in the Atlantic coast, her friend Beatriz comes along. Together, they have plotted an intelligible escape from their parents. During the trip, Fernanda will leave the bubble of her neighborhood in Bogotá, transgressing the vast and plural territory in front of her and acquiring a different understanding of her body through doing so. She will encounter a series of women that are a historical testimony of the period in which her journey takes place.
