After what seemed like a trivial argument, Marta and Antonio split up. Antonio, a rising chef, immers himself in his work. But despite being the one who ended things with Marta, he can’t seem to forget her. Marta reacts to the breakup by withdrawing into herself, but then begins to notice something more than sadness: she has lost her appetite... and not just because of heartbreak. When she discovers that her loss of appetite has more to do with her own health than the pain of separation, everything changes: the taste of food, the music, the desire to live without fear. A story about love, life, and those moments that change everything forever.
