When Noemí left Escarigo in the 1960s, in pursuit of a better life, the streets were filled with life and joy. Now, the silence reigns in this rural Portuguese village. Seventeen years after her last visit to her hometown, we follow Noemí along on a journey where she rediscovers places, faces and memories in an almost empty village that she barely recognises anymore. With the help of the few residents left and longtime friends, Noemí dives into her past while trying to overcome the loss of those she loves.

"The one who does not see" is the story of anyone who one day loses their way and opens the doors to social exclusion.

It is the life of thousands who walk the streets and nobody sees them.
