Una entrañable y conmovedora ópera prima sobre la familia, los cuidados y el amor.

Una oda a la música y los libros como puente intergeneracional.

Conocemos de verdad quiénes fueron nuestros padres y abuelos? Pueden los secretos familiares cambiar el rumbo de nuestra vida?

Elena está a cargo de su abuela Manuela, que sufre de alzhéimer. Como acto de amor hacia ella, decide aprender a tocar el piano y reproducir una melodía que le recuerda a la relación que tenían antes de que enfermara. Al poco de iniciar las clases, encuentra dentro del piano de la casa familiar unas cartas sin abrir de hace más de cincuenta años. Este descubrimiento la llevará a tratar de averiguar quién las ha escrito y por qué han estado ocultas tanto tiempo. Con la ayuda de Matías, su profesor de piano, Elena les abrirá la puerta a secretos familiares escondidos hasta ahora.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

An endearing and moving opera prima about family, love, and care.

An ode to music and books as a cross-generational bridge.

Do we know the truth about who our parents and grandparents were? Can family secrets change the course of our lives?

Elena is caring for her grandmother Manuela, who has Alzheimer's. As an act of love, she decides to learn to play the piano and play a tune that reminds her grandmother of the relationship they used to have before she got ill. Soon after starting her lessons, Elena finds unopened letters from more than fifty years ago inside the piano, at the family home. This discovery will make her try to find out who wrote them and why they remained hidden for so long. With the help of Matias, her piano teacher, Elena will open a door to family secrets concealed until now.
