In a small village near Salamanca, Don Alejandro, a wealthy widower in his sixties, leads a solitary life, finding solace in music, chess, and hunting. His routine is disrupted when he encounters Goyita, a precocious 13-year-old. As they share walks, horseback rides, and dinners, Alejandro experiences a resurgence of vitality, his first since his wife's death. Goyita, seeking validation and affection, yearns for Alejandro to regard her as a mature woman and confess his feelings for her. Yet, Alejandro treasures their platonic companionship, which has rekindled his spirit, and grapples with the prospect of falling in love with someone so young.
