In a remote timeless village called El Eco, children take care of sheep and their grandparents. As winter and drought ravage the place, they learn through every act, word, and silence of their parents to understand death, work, and love. It’s a story about the echoes of things that cling to the soul, about the certainty of the shelter we can find alongside those around us, about rebellion and the thrill of life. About growing up.
