Cuatro paredes

Sofía is about to turn ten when her life takes an unexpected turn: her father dies in an accident that changes everything. Suddenly, the home she knew transforms into an emotional and economic battlefield.

Now she lives alone with her mother, Juana, who tries to hold herself and her daughter together, while the thin line separating stability from poverty begins to fade. Juana, consumed by pain and pressure, does everything she can to maintain the routine, the meals, the school, the calm... but within her grows an abyss of sadness and anxiety.

Sofía, for her part, deals with absence, confusion, and fear from her childhood world, searching for meaning where there are only silences. Her only refuge is the school theater: the rehearsals for the end-of-year play become her safe space, a place where she can imagine other lives, other endings. Behind the scenes and in the scripts, Sofía discovers the strength that comes from imagination, and the healing power of storytelling.

As mother and daughter navigate their own storms, they discover that sometimes enduring is the greatest act of love, and that even in the darkest moments, a spark of beauty can open the door to hope and a better future with your loved ones.
