Five women live in a large hacienda in rural Chile: matriarch Matilde, her three biological daughters and an adopted one.

Cinco mujeres viven en una casona en el área rural de Chile: la matriarca Matilde, sus tres hijas biológicas y una adoptada. Sin embargo, cualquier parecido con “La casa de Bernarda Alba” de Federico García Lorca termina ahí. En su lecho de muerte, Matilde le confiesa al sacerdote del pueblo que ella mató a su esposo hace 40 años y lo enterró dentro de un cofre en el garaje … un cofre que ya contenía otro cuerpo. Las noticias conmocionan a toda la familia y secretos enterrados durante mucho tiempo saldrán a la superficie en esta comedia llena de humor negro.
