Florencia is 17 years old, and she must take care of her brother, who is a vegetative state. Trying to survive with no money and no one taking care of them, the young girl will discover the comic book The Plants and start to explore her sexuality through the Internet.
In the comic book Florencia reads devotedly, plants invade the city during full moon nights, as if they were ghosts. In her world, this drawn fantasy also seems to come alive. His house is surrounded by a garden that at times gains that power and brings a strange vibe to the environment as well as confusing visions. As if submerged in a vegetal atmosphere, Florencia must deal with the time she finds herself in, where the people close to her languishes at the same time her obligations progressively cover her free time. She says goodbye to adolescence reinventing the way she relates to others, designing adventures with men, dancing with friends, and re-reading Plants as a ritual for casting a spell on the world. MA
