Half-sisters Diana and Lily grew up as the only resident children at an all-inclusive resort on Gran Canaria, where their uninhibited mother, Vera, worked as a Star Tour hostess. 25 years later, they have both created distance from the island and from each other, but now they are forced to return to the island to deal with their mother’s sudden death in the Canarian mountains. The reunion sets them on a headlong journey into their past.
