SYNOPSIS Inés travels to Kiruna, a town on the Swedish Arctic Circle, more than thirteen thousand kilometers from Uruguay. She revisits her past of exile captured in hundreds of handwritten letters, written between her and her father, imprisoned for 14 years in Uruguay. Letters in which they shared dreams and difficulties, where writing and family became a bridge to be together, wherever they were.
