At the age of 89, Julián takes one last bus ride to El Paso, Texas, to visit his daughters and their children —a lengthy trip he has made without fail for decades. After returning to rural Mexico, he starts building a house in an empty lot. In the absence of his physical visits, can this new house bridge the distance between his loved ones?
