Nene is in her eighties, an accomplished and retired painter. When her daughter visits from the city with her young grandson, Nene quietly sets out to finish one final painting — a deeply personal act her family knows nothing about.

A quiet, tender reflection on legacy, aging, and the inner world we carry into old age.
