The 1960s. María Margarita is the youngest of four siblings in a family that lives in a mining town in the Atacama desert. The special time in the week is Sunday, when everyone goes to the cinema to enjoy stories that transport them to other worlds. The girl's parents soon realize that their little daughter has a very special gift, an uncanny ability to tell film stories. The girl's talent spreads across the town and changes the family's fortune just as the country is being transformed forever.
