In a forest on the outskirts of Barcelona (Spain), a sick old shepherd and his flock of sheep live near a high-tech laboratory dedicated to health research and animal experimentation.
Lluís Maria Xirinacs, a religious man, philosopher and political activist, leaves Barcelona on a Monday in August 2007 for the mountains. It was the day he turned seventy-five. Six days later, a mushroom picker finds him lying in a meadow, dead. Ten years later, Duna, a writer in a creative and personal crisis, searches for the ultimate meaning of this death.
