 Amanda lives with her mother and two younger siblings . She is a wise little soul trapped in a 9 - year - old body , a replica of her mother and always looks after her slacker father ( which may explain why the parents separated ) whom they visit on weekends . This dysfunctional but loving family is content with the status quo , until Amanda ’ s mother Cecilia decides to leave the country for a better life but Amanda is adamant that she will stay with her father Gustavo . 
 This charming family drama is apparently an autobiographical portrait of the director Ana GARCÍA BLAYA ’ s own childhood . It is a warm family movie , but at the same time a genuine coming - of - age story that the director had to live through . There are some real home video clips weaving throughout the film until the ending credit , and the sheer delight and excitement of the kids shine through the blurry images . The director , in her subtle way , is saying that she loved , and was loved . ( Karen Park )
