In a cave, more than sixty years ago, she was born. Now she lives in a village, with many children and grandchildren to look after. Sometimes, she dreams of her dead mother calling her home — to the cave. The film captures fleeting moments of her daily life and the transmission of her fragile language, the Rục, to her grandchildren.
