Summaries

A minimalist black-and-white film in which an African woman wanders around the city of Valencia during the celebration of the Falles, a festivity full of music, noises, firecrackers, - She does some ritualistic activities every day such as washing in a fountain, sit down in a corner and tries to keep distance from the crowd. Nevertheless she feels amazed with the nocturne lights and some brief moments as when she sees a puppeteer. When she comes home -a tent made of plastic under a bridge-, she finds Bella, a Latin transsexual who helps her to overcome that situation, but the situation is hard for both: Bella has been expelled from the public hostel she lived and she has not choice to work as a prostitute and the African woman -to whom Bella calls "Spain"- does not have any cent and does not understand Spanish neither so even though the communication between them is so difficult, they try to understand each other.
