Lali (30), a drifter, returns to Barcelona to care for her estranged, terminally ill mom, Gloria (50). To pay for her treatments, Lali juggles small jobs and petty thefts, but her life shifts when she meets Rosario (60), the leader of a band of thieves of religious artefacts. Initially driven by money, Lali forms a mentor-disciple bond with Rosario, finding an alternative mother who moves in the shadows, free from the Catholic faith Gloria clings to. Rosario gives her a livelihood and a community.
To escape the burden of Gloria’s deterioration, Lali has Rosario’s people care for her mom, but she is running out of time to share with her.
Pressed by the need for a big hit, one night, Lali joins the thieves in a pillage. They enter the churches of a medieval city and remove the statues of saints from the altars, with respect, almost like a ritual. When Lali realises Rosario’s greed may put them all in danger, she will have to choose where she truly wants to be as Gloria’s end approaches.
