Anita sees how the
over three decades that she has been working at a cinema
box office are literally devastated: the building is demolished
to give way to a cinema complex, and she is forced into
early retirement because she does not fit into the new
company's image. Incapable of getting over the shock,
and by inertia, she continues going back to the empty
lot every day, where the cinema used to be and where a
construction company is building the new complex.
By mere chance, she
ends up in love and involved with a man who drives a bulldozer
at the construction site. A tender and bittersweet affair
comes about, which is carried out in the dark, inside
a trailer where the company has its offices. He is married
and does not hide it. But, despite that, and thanks to
their secret meetings, they are both able to open a door
to hopes for the future. This is a relaationship without
perspectives, but in Anita's case, at her early fifties,
it helps her to mark a before and after in her life.
A tender, entertaining
and encouraging story of a survival.
