- Synopsis
- At 39 you are too young to die and too young to lose your best friend.
  
  Everybody has gathered at Elena's funeral wake for a last goodbye. Adela stands among the mourning crowd of relatives, friends and strangers. The low light, the flower arrangements and the crucifix arising behind the casket have no relation whatsoever to her beloved Elena.
  
  Adela can't help but feel the whole farewell ritual rings absurd and fictitious. Her friend's passing has left her in shock, and she can already sense a future where something will be missing.
  
  And so Adela becomes a time traveler, gliding to a distant autumn, ten years before, where a lively and funny Elena awaits her in a beach house, ready to binge on detective novels and ride bicycles. Joined by Luci and her baby boy Paco, the three friends will spend a weekend filled with music, long conversations and even a few scares.
  
  Still, the weekend won't last forever and Adela is not ready yet to let Elena go again. When the time comes to pack and leave, baby Paco finds a gateway to an extra time of indulgence and evasion, and the three friends follow through.
  
  Adela will forever miss her friend, but not today. Elena is still right next to her.
