Тереса в небе. Она работает стюардессой. Она живет в своем раю безупречной униформы и маленьких подносов с замороженной едой. Она боится мира внизу. Мира мужчин, любви, материнства и семьи. Она предпочитает аэропорты и вечный полет. Внизу на земле живет Хулиан. Недавно овдовевший молодой врач, которому нужно добраться до Ушуаи — самого южного города в мире. Он должен сдержать обещание и развеять прах свой жены (которая тоже была стюардессой) в том месте, где они встретились. Хулиан познал любовь и боль и хочет сбежать в рай из этого земного мира. Женщина, пытающаяся не упасть с высоты рая. Мужчина, пытающийся вознестись. Неизбежная встреча на краю света, где небо и земля сливаются в белизне, и где прошлое превращается в горизонт.
