Silence is a tradition among the women of Rita's family, so it is no wonder that she must interpret for herself what her mother has left unsaid about the horrors of the Terezin concentration camp. But Rita faces a silence of her own: a Peronist militant in 1980s Argentina, she has been incarcerated and abused in Buenos Aires' infamous ESMA detention centre. In an imagined dialogue between mother and daughter, Rita recreates Tinkeleh's unarticulated story, interweaving it with memories of her own childhood.
