A small town in northern Spain, summer 1982. Tere (11) rehearses a play with a group of amateurs: she is going to be Puck in “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” We always see her silent- either watching others or lost in her thoughts- but we can hear her voice as an adult narrating her story. Her rival is whimsical Andrea (12), in love with the same boy, handsome Rafa (12). Ana Belén (13) helps Andrea to make a love potion, although she is not sure to retain her “powers” since she started menstruating. Alex (13), fond of the macabre and comfortable in his bad-boy role, refuses to admit he likes Andrea. Rounding out the group of friends is clumsy R2 (12), Alex’s faithful companion, Paul (9), Rafa’s younger brother, and Tim, a dog that looks like something out of the Famous Five adventures. But there is someone else: in the village you can still see posters with the photo of Dani (8), who disappeared mysteriously. The last time his friends saw him, they left him all alone in a forbidden place, where he was the victim of a cruel joke: if he tried to escape, a mysterious character would snatch him up forever … Andrea and Ana Belén leave Tere aside when they arrange the spell which should trap Rafa’s will: an item of the beloved’s clothing, a concoction prepared by a virgin, a magical object obtained after passing a test of courage … a task that seems doomed to fail. Memories of adult Tere mix up the characters’ fate with the theatrical representation in which couples break up and get together as if by magic, leading to an end in which secrets are revealed among unexpected occurrences.
