A family from Portugal countryside faces changes and uncomfortable truths when their son goes to study in London. The film portrays the seasonal holidays during which the young man returns home (Winter, Spring, Summer, and Autumn) and explores the father's midlife crisis, the daughter's puberty, the son's emancipation, and how the mother deals with the "empty nest." It's an exploration of Portuguese family dynamics when confronted with new emigration and the difficulties of growing up and aging.
