The script is based on the novel "The Volunteer Teacher" by Laura Olemá. The story takes place in a camp for volunteer teachers who join a campaign to promote literacy. The film focuses on several young people and their constant confrontation with a reality that has little to do with the idealized ideals they aspired to.
