The movie tells the story of Sofia, a mysterious woman who walks to "Vila Clemência" Station hoping to catch a train, as the one she was on broke down. The station is in an isolated place and seems like it's been abandoned for a long time. Since the train doesn't show up, Sofia is forced to stay at the guesthouse that the National Railway Company offers to passengers who happen to end up there. And so begins her journey to try to leave that place and go after her husband, who left her for another woman. We see her interactions with the other passengers who live there, some of them for a long time, and like her, each one deals with the wait for a train that may come several times a year or may not come for over 10 years. They are lonely people brought together by chance, waiting for the train to show up at some point so they can take different paths.
