Every morning Madalena makes bread for Antonio?s old coffee shop, crosses the tracks where no trains have passed for years, cleans the gate of the locked cemetery, listens to the priest?s sermon and then has lunch with the other old villagers. She lives in the past, clinging to the memory of her dead husband, until one day a young photographer named Rita arrives and changes her life.
