Marta, a talented architect living with multiple sclerosis, struggles as her illness gradually erodes both her independence and her marriage. During repeated stays at a Catholic care home, she forms meaningful connections with fellow patients and a compassionate visitor, finding brief moments of hope amid the reality of her condition. As her world continues to unravel, Marta is forced to confront the limits of love, dignity, and the possibility of choosing her own fate.
