Sinopsis

In a Spanish town, a lineage of washerwomen have not only inherited this profession, but also the passion for flamenco dance and singing that enlivens their work.

One day Carmencita, the youngest daughter of the family, appears drowned in the river. Carmen, her mother, unable to accept it, is convinced of the imminent return of the girl, whose ghost continues to appear to her through a shadow.

Rocío, Carmen’s other daughter, must carry alone the weight of her own mourning and of a mother who seems to veil the memory of a dead daughter, forgetting herself along the way. Only through dance and by Rocío’s hand, Carmen will travel the mourning until she lets Carmencita’s ghost go, accepting her absence.
