Buenos Aires, fine estate. Marina, Sofia e Violeta, dopo la morte della nonna, presso la quale sono cresciute, vivono da sole nella casa dei genitori. Ognuna di loro cerca di superare il dolore e convivere con la sua scomparsa a modo proprio: Marina si dedica agli studi e cerca anche di conservare integra la convivenza domestica, Sofia si concentra sulla sua apparenza estetica e sulle cose materiali, mentre Violeta si muove tra la camera e il salone e di tanto in tanto riceve un uomo di una certa età. Dissidi e gioie, litigi e dimostrazioni d’amore segnano questo tempo di transizione e d’insicurezza – finché in un giorno d’autunno Violeta scompare improvvisamente.
