Set in Tangier, the story centers on an aging Spanish woman who has lived in the same apartment for decades - in Calle Málaga (Malaga Street). The titular street feels like a character in this story – every beautiful shot an intimate exploration of long-established lives, loves, and connections with the residents and the buildings themselves. Touzani captivates all senses in this deliberately paced, lush love letter to her home city.

Life-long Tangier resident María Ángeles-Muñoz (played with a blend of fiery defiance, charm, and intimacy by an exquisite Carmen Maura) has her world turned upside down when her daughter arrives and gives her the choice of moving to Madrid with her, or being moved into a senior care facility. Maria soon finds herself out of place in a world that isn’t hers. Full of defiance, she finds her way back, only to find an empty apartment and her lifetime of precious keepsakes sold to a local antiques dealer. As she finds ways to earn money to buy her belongings back, María leans on old friendships (including an amusing silent performance from María Alfonsa Rosso as Sister Josefa), and discovers unexpected new bonds that change the path ahead.
