Elisabetta, tired and dissatisfied, decides to make a change in her life by entrusting herself to a spiritual master, but at the dawn of this new beginning, during the practice of a walking meditation, Elisabetta is suddenly hit by an illness and collapses to the ground unconscious. As a passer-by attempts resuscitation, her spirit leaves her body and begins a painful and invisible journey alongside her loved ones, heartbroken by her untimely death. Everything seems cruelly inescapable and she helplessly witnesses the organization of a funeral that she disapproves of in every detail. Only the arrival of the mysterious Cristal seems to give a new perspective to what is happening to her.
