SYNOPSIS A young Iranian woman in Avilés becomes obsessed with the palm tree in front of her house. Her mother's stories about the similarity between palm trees and humans echo in her heart, and she feels the tree's suffering. Rooted in two worlds, the palm tree stands as a silent witness to society and history. The film is born from her observation, connecting her inner world with the universe around her.
