As an old woman, Carme recalls her life since she first became a woman at 11 years old when she had her first period, until her journey towards old age with the menopause's arrival. Carme relives the most important moments of her life, especially all the years of happiness spent with her husband: from the moment he courted her, passing through their wedding and all the 40 years she was happy with him, getting old together, until the solitude she felt after her husband died.
