This film is a comedy set against the backdrop of the mourning process of a Jewish-Mexican family. After the sudden death of grandfather Moishe, the rituals of mandatory reclusion begin and, with them, a catharsis that leads the family and friends to discover the ties that bind them, the secrets that have been kept, and their relationship to their surroundings.
