Eva is faced with a turning point in the gloomy environment of a hospital ward as her sick mother Alma begs her to mend fences with her father. Alma’s weak but resolute voice reverberates, highlighting how important this link is—especially in the event that she doesn’t survive her illness.
After Alma’s death, Eva reluctantly complies with her mother’s request and sets out on a quest to get back in touch with her father, Oscar. Eva is currently in foster care. Eva tries to contact her estranged parent via phone and email, but she only receives a quick response. This leaves Eva struggling with how to proceed.
Years later, while working as a hotel maid, Eva discovers the shocking truth: her father Oscar, who is now married to famous designer Nora, is staying at the hotel where she works. Fueled by a combination of bitterness and a desire for vengeance, Eva devises a scheme to destroy their relationship. She sends an anonymous message to Oscar’s phone and purposefully leaves proof of her guilt in their room, setting off a chain of events that damage their marriage.
When Nora finds the fabricated proof, she accuses Oscar of being unfaithful, which leads to a furious dispute. Oscar suffers terrible consequences that leave him broke and yearning for forgiveness.
Oscar shows up at Eva’s door a few months later, looking for forgiveness and safety. But now that she is stronger and in charge of her own fate, Eva understands his true motivations. She gives him an earring she preserved from the hotel incident as a symbol of her chilly refusal. Eva is closing the door on her turbulent past and is adamant about her newfound freedom and autonomy.
