Summer 1993

Six-year-old Frida looks on as the last objects from her recently deceased mother's apartment in Barcelona are placed in boxes. With both her parents now dead, she is taken to the Catalonian countryside. Although her aunt, uncle, and her 4 year old cousin Anna welcome her, it's only very slowly that Frida begins to get used to her new home in the countryside, and the idea that her mother is not coming back, and that her new family is permanent.
