A French couple moves to a village in the Galician countryside, seeking proximity to nature. They have a quiet life, plant vegetables, and restore abandoned houses, but they do not have a good relationship with the other inhabitants. One refusal, specifically, enhances the disagreement with two brothers in the neighborhood, pushing the situation to the limit. Screened at the 2022 Cannes Film Festival.
