After the death of her aunt Lu, Ana returns to Bolivia after 25 years to sell the family home. It's a trip she didn't want to take, due to her and her family's painful past during the last military dictatorship, which forced her into exile as a child. But the return allows her to discover truths she never knew and to reconnect with herself and her home.[6]
