Three women from Barcelona, after years of friendship with a group of male migrants from the South-Est of MA, strengthened through the struggles against discriminatory immigration laws, travel to their friends’s village to meet the women who’ve stayed behind, together with the elders and children. Revisiting Odyssey’s character of Penelope, the directors see these women as the weavers of the tie between here and there, pulling the threads of their future.
