Set between the summers of two different lifetimes, Felicia Revamonte revisits her hometown in Punta Buri after several years of exile in New Zealand. Her mission is personal: sign the papers to sell the family land, say goodbye to the past, and see everything off for good. But upon her arrival on the vast greenlands of Negros Occidental, she is confronted by her past, and of a particular summer fourteen years ago that tells of friendships left unmended. But so many things have changed now, and each passing day back home feels like a furtive farewell to all the innocence of youth.
