Isabel is the perfect mother and wife: she takes care of the domestic work, looks after her family, gets along with her in-laws, especially her parents-in-law. She is a selfless woman who dedicates her life to the others, mostly her daughters. Isabel also has her dreams and ambitions. She's specially gifted for sewing and, when she finishes her home tasks, she sews to get an extra income. Hidden in one of the uncluttered rooms of the house, where she finds her own piece of mind, she dreams about starting her own fashion business, where she can design and sell her own clothes. Nevertheless, the daily requests don't let her fantasize: the others own her life. One day, her husband decides to have a male child without asking her opinion, deciding also his future name. This fact seems to wake the consciousness of Isabel, who will have to decide if her actual life is worthy or must confront her family and live up to her dreams.
