A Basque terrorist gets out of prison after 25 years while the leaders of the organisation negotiate a ceasefire with the government. Disappointed by his old comrades, he decides to act alone and hides in a village in the Ripollès mountains to prepare another attack. From the anonymity of his hideout, he will discover old wounds that set the villagers against one another and will end up facing an outbreak of violence that will force him to choose between allegiance to his cause and the defence of innocent people.
