Children with Down syndrome, Anita, Rita, Ricardo, and Andrés, have been attending a special school for more than 40 years. After all this time, they are beginning to grow tired of being in such a safe and comfortable setting. Some of them, who are over 45 years old, believe that working in the school bakery is no longer a challenge for them. Moreover, they crave for independence on a more personal basis. They are in love, but they still have to live with their parents and siblings. They hope to locate a peaceful area where they can spend quality time together, and they hope to be married and start a family. Unfortunately, the culture in which they live is not equipped to accommodate their yearning for greater freedom. Despite the instruction they receive to help them become "responsible adults," all four of them continue to rely on others to make decisions for them, much to their dissatisfaction and disappointment.
