Synopsis

Three women lost in a theater at the beginning of the 21st century. Three actresses in search of a spectator travel from the Russian steppe to the Mexican wasteland. Three generations of sisters, artists, incendiaries, question the relevance of the theater and the direction of their personal lives as they try to reach a place where everything can be dazzling or, at least, warm.
