Gabriela y Juana, madre e hija, viven los años de la guerra civil en una ciudad castellana cuyo ambiente les resulta incómodo y asfixiante. Gabriela se ha quedado viuda, su marido ha sido fusilado por sus ideas republicanas y subsiste dando clases en la escuela privada, ya que no tiene acceso a la pública debido a sus ideas políticas, hasta que decide aceptar la proposición de matrimonio que le hace Octavio, un misterioso millonario mexicano que se llevará a madre e hija a su hacienda de Puebla. Allí, lejos del núcleo de exiliados españoles, va transcurriendo la vida de ambas mujeres. Sobre un fondo de sucesos históricos, evocados a la luz nostálgica de la memoria y del desgarro del exilio, asistimos a la intensa relación de Gabriela y Juana, al amor de la hija por su madre, oscilante entre la dependencia y la rebeldía. Juana evoluciona hacia un mundo de deseos y proyectos que choca con la hermética personalidad de la madre, austera y enlutada, marcada por la mística del deber y un puritanismo laico de raíces castellanas. Juana, que rechaza por instinto el pesimismo vital de las mujeres de negro que han habitado su vida, después de varios años de exilio decide regresar al Madrid de la posguerra y se integra a una universidad que ensaya sus primeros conatos de rebeldía.
