An exciting story that brings together three generations of women around the passion for ballet.

Caterina, whose mother is Russian and whose father is Catalan, is twelve years old and loves dance, but for a reason that she does not understand, her mother does not allow her to give classes. When she decides to do a school project on the history of Russia, Caterina discovers that her grandmother Ekaterina, who is eighty years old and lives in a residence in Saint Petersburg, was a prima ballerina in the city's ballet. Through the letters they exchange, the grandmother explains her life and that of her parents through the history of her country - the Russian Revolution, the two world wars, the Nazis, the fall of the Berlin Wall - and the girl finally discovers the secret her mother is hiding.

A female version of Billy Elliot.
