Synopsis
Spain, 1940. Every time Elena locks the door to her house, she turns a key that envelops her secrets. Her husband Ricardo has been in hiding in his own house for years. Scarred and lost after fighting on the front, Salvador, a deacon, returns to the seminary. While waiting to be ordained, Salvador will teach at the school Lorenzo goes to. Lorenzo is Elena's son, and Salvador thinks Elena is widowed. The young deacon becomes obsessed with Elena and begins a relentless pursuit of her. The fragility of the family is laid bare, and their already fickle reality is even more dangerously shaken.
