Luis travels up into the mountains to see his father again for the first time in years. In an isolated holiday house, he unexpectedly meets the new family his father has been keeping from him. Pulled between the opposing forces of anger, incomprehension and the desire for intimacy, Luis tries to draw his father out, finally provoking a conflict.
