During the death throes of the last Carlist War, a girl is rescued from an orphanage by a mysterious woman who lives deep in the forest. Badly wounded, and feeling that she is on the verge of death, the little girl will believe that she sees an angel who has come to take her to Heaven. It will not take long for her to discover, at the dawn of the new day, that this strange being has given her eternal life in exchange for her company. Under her new condition, she will have to ‘live’ the painful passage of time locked in her childhood, and count countless moons until she meets Cándido, a humble man who will welcome her into his home as if she were his own daughter, and with whom she will begin her journey against her new nature and the dream of regaining her raptured life.
