Synopsis

Rita (90) belongs to a women's choir which is in danger of breaking up because they’ve lost the municipal subsidy which allowed them to rent their rehearsal room. Now the choir has to decide whether or not to accept sponsorship by one of the companies causing most pollution in the valley, a sponsorship that would guarantee the choir’s existence.
