- EXTENDED SYNOPSIS
1976. Un seminarista regresa a su pueblo y se encuentra con que, en la aldea vecina, se ha instalado una comuna alternativa, que despierta recelos en las fuerzas vivas. Intentando convertirlos, termina integrándose en la comuna; descubriendo losvaloresde una forma de vida alternativa, y el amor, con todo el gozo y el dolor que causa.
Breixo, a successful writer of 55 years, returns to Vilamor 33 years after leaving. Vilamor was then-newly established democracy after years of dictatorship closed- a village abandoned in the mountains in Lugo, which had just set up a commune ofyoungpeople who wanted to live an alternative lifestyle to society. And Breixo was then a young seminarian vacation in his hometown, near Vilamor, which is attracted to that group of men and women -and one in particular, Sonia, of falling in love- thatrehabilitate the village, looking for return to rural life and doing without private property; in a lifestyle that Breixo seems very close to the ideal of Christian society. Therefore he defends them, when the commune generates great hostility inthevital forces of his people, and after his failed attempt to reconcile their religious ideals with communal lifestyle, Breixo leaves the seminary and is integrated into the commune, which, despite the difficulties, manages to get by. But a seriousmisunderstanding of Breixo love with Sonia, he does finally leave. Thirty-three years later, the life experience of that time has fueled his success as a writer, but still feels the void left by Sonia and eternal values which defended the commune.
