In 1990, just after the fall of the Pinochet dictatorship, sixteen year old Chilean Sofia is seeking a route out of the stifling inertia of the backwoods setup her father has chosen for her. A few ominous incidents hint at the outside world encroaching and history rises up almost unseen like smoke and hangs in the air around the inhabitants of a Chilean rural commune where the film is set. Shot with beautifully atmospheric cinematography, the camera often films its subjects from afar. The languid settings help director Dominga Sotomayor create a feel of the memory and interpretation of growing up.
