Spoilers ahead

In Santiago, Chile, Gloria, a 58-year-old woman newly freed from a decade of divorce, begins to crave companionship and a break from a life she’s grown tired of. She starts visiting singles discos, hoping to rediscover a spark, and there she meets Rodolfo, a man who runs an amusement park on the city’s outskirts. Even though he’s seven years older and recently divorced, Rodolfo shows immediate interest in Gloria and they quickly begin a relationship. Yet his life is tightly bound to his two grown daughters, who depend on him financially and have never held steady jobs themselves. Because of that, Rodolfo never leaves his mobile phone unattended and answers every call no matter where he is.
