Synopsis:

Director Montxo Armendáriz's haunting drama delves into the long-term psychological effects caused by the abuse of children. Upon turning twenty-five, Silvia (Michelle Jenner) decides to reveal the hell she experienced and face the people, feelings and emotions that keep her bound to the past. Armendáriz blends documentary and fiction by including testimonials based on real events that are incorporated into the fictional narrative. These on-camera confessions - spoken by real victims and actors - serve to show the wide range of people of different sexes, ages and social backgrounds who may fall victim to abuse during their childhood and youth. The cast includes Goya-winner Belen Rueda (The Sea Inside) as Silvia's in-denial mother.

Silvia is a young girl marked by a dark childhood. When she is barely twenty-five, she decides to start over and to face the people, feelings and emotions that keep her bound to the past. In her fight against adversity and against herself, she will learn to control her fears and become an adult, responsible for her own actions.
