Emilio and Rosa have created a dream family with their five flower-named daughters in an isolated valley in the Canary Islands. Far from civilisation and the lives they left behind, they enjoy their special paradise oblivious to the rest of the world. Then a stranger arrives to their house among the cactuses... and only Emilio and Rosa know the danger they are in, because they keep a terrible secret. Carlota González-Adrio builds tension spectacularly around darkness and silence in her debut film, based on Paul Penn's novel Desert Flowers.
