A man is about to take his own life.
He has lost his job, his marriage has fallen apart, and he can no longer find a reason to keep going.
Then he inherits Maruxa's house, an old property in Os Altos do Rego, a remote village in the heart of Galicia, Spain. He believes that, far from everything and everyone, he might finally find something he hasn't felt in a long time: peace.
But from the very first day, things don't quite add up.
At first, they seem like minor details. He's exhausted, he can't sleep, and he's been carrying his troubles for far too long. He tells himself there's a perfectly reasonable explanation for everything.
Then the clocks start losing time. His memories no longer match what's right in front of him. And little by little, he begins to wonder whether he can trust his own mind.
But what's really wrong here—the house, or him?
