Twin sisters Martina and Micaela live with their mother, Norma who takes care of them. She also accompanies them to their classes of catechesis (basic Christian religious education) and to castings in the capital, with the intention that her daughters would be famous actresses. The routine is altered when Norma begins to work and leaves the tasks of the home. Martina and Micaela are left alone and, in a situation of fragile helplessness and freedom, begin a learning of domestic survival.
