ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Eva thinks that she is not a very fortunate girl: every day she wakes up with a new question that the Internet can't answer. She doesn't have friends, at school nobody notices her, and her parents argue all the time.

On top of that, Eva has a serious problem: she still hasn't decided what she wants to be when she grows up. But everything changes when her parents decide to take a trip, on their therapist's advice, and Eva has to stay for several weeks with her uncle Antonio, a man she hardly knows and whom she has only seen at family reunions. But as of that moment, uncle and niece develop a very dear relationship--a relationship that will change both of their lives.
