San Isidro

In a remote riverside hacienda, the stoic Don Beltrán watches the sky darken, untroubled by the villagers’ warnings of a flood that could swallow the valley. His niece, Agueda, moves quietly through the house, gathering provisions while the old servant Adán prepares the animals for safety. The tension between Don Beltrán’s casual confidence and Agueda’s quiet urgency sets a mood of uneasy anticipation.

The narrative weaves memories of past tragedies: the loss of Agueda’s mother, Nada, whose mysterious illness and untimely death still linger in the family’s silence. As the storm gathers, the characters’ intertwined histories and the looming river create a portrait of resilience and quiet dread, inviting listeners to feel the weight of the impending deluge without revealing what lies beyond the first act.
