In the 1980s, in St. Louis, Missouri, Rafaela's daughter, Ruth, lets go of her language, habits, and childhood memories of Puerto Rico. Decades later Ruth's own daughter, Daisy, returns to San Juan. When a hurricane ravages the island in 2023, leaving Daisy critically injured, Rafaela and Ruth return to the city where their story began. As old memories come to light, so do buried secrets, leaving everyone in the family wondering exactly where it is they belong.
