Maria Angeles, a 79 year-old Spanish woman, lives alone in Tangier, Morocco enjoying her daily routine. But her life is turned upside down when her daughter arrives from Madrid to sell the apartment she has always called home. Determined to stay, she does everything she can to get her apartment and belongings back and, unexpectedly, rediscovers love and sensuality along the way.
