In 1925, in a bright studio on the banks of the Seine, a woman paints her self-portrait, in which she appears nude. The artist and model of this painting is named Valeria.
In the spring of 1974, Olivia is about to graduate in Art History and accompanies her grandfather, Boris Badia, an old antiquarian, to empty a flat in the Plaza Reial. The house belonged to Lukas Hailer, an Austrian-born art dealer who has just passed away. To Olivia's surprise, behind a painting appears the oil painting of a naked woman that had been hidden for decades. From that moment on, Olivia will try to discover the origin of this mysterious work. The search for her will take her to the heart of the most bohemian Paris, in the middle of the 1910s.

Fictional characters meet with personalities such as Picasso or Gertrude Stein, and also with women who marked the art scene but remained in the shadows.

A story of female emancipation in two stages, the Barcelona of the 1970s and the Paris of the early 20th century.
