Synopsis: Tasio has been working as a charcoal burner since he was fourteen years old in a small village in the Urbasa mountain range in Navarre. Life changes, but the mountain remains always the same: rugged and beautiful. It is the scene of his childhood games, but it is also the place where he finds a livelihood for his family. Although it is the time of the rural exodus, of emigration to the cities in search of a better future, Tasio prefers to stay and live in the bush, in absolute solitude, in order to safeguard his freedom.

Synopsis: Ane's life takes a turn when she begins to receive a bouquet of flowers anonymously at her house every week. Lourdes and Tere's lives are also affected by mysterious flowers. Every week a stranger deposits a bouquet in memory of someone who was important in their lives. This is the story of three women, three lives altered by the mere presence of flowers.

Running Time: 111 min

Language: Original version with English subtitles

Synopsis: VIII century. Christianity spreads throughout Europe while pagan beliefs disappear. Faced with the attack of Charlemagne's army crossing the Pyrenees, the leader of the valley asks an ancestral goddess for help. Through a blood pact, he defeats the enemy by giving his life in exchange, but first, he makes his son Eneko promise to protect and lead his people in the new era. Years later, Eneko faces that promise with a mission: to recover his father's body buried in a pagan manner next to Charlemagne's treasure. Despite his Christian faith, he will need the help of Irati, an enigmatic pagan of the area. The two young people will enter a strange and inhospitable forest where “everything that has a name exists”.
