Antonia is 39 years old and together with her 15-year-old dog Ayasqa dreams of a trip to Cambodia. Between family pressures about whether she will have children and her concern about Ayasqa’s age, Antonia goes to the beach to think about her decision.

Disrupt, reject, destroy, avoid: At the interrupted rhythm of the broken photographs that a granddaughter has rescued from her grandfather’s hands, the last piece reconstructs the memory of an older man who has decided to leave behind his life impulses to surrender to sleep and calm. An essay on the act of joining our memories, the illusion of remembering and the freedom to forget.

Some orphan photographs revive a resonant experience in the intimacy of the filmmaker, an experience she had not been aware of until she fragmented these images.
