D. Piedade is an old mouse who lives in a small village in the mountainous interior of Portugal. Her existence is mainly composed of loneliness and memories, and a hardened routine, guided by the regular rhythm of the clock and the tea she drinks with her friends, two sisters, who live in the same village.The accumulation of this routine will awaken in D. Piedade the desire to break it. Using a strong memory that drives her to act, she returns to where she was happy, hoping to regain some kind of new happiness.
