The plot follows Elisa, a 12-year-old girl coping with the trauma pertaining the death of her mother in a car accident. She tries to convince her sullen father Esteban that she has superpowers so she can exert revenge on those responsible for the tragedy.

Júlia Olmo of Cineuropa deemed the film (otherwise featuring elements and sequences strongly reminiscent of Carlos Vermut's films) to be "an interesting offering, that proposes a narrative of somewhat originality", yet failing to "strike the tone it aspires to and from which it feeds". The review by Boquerini published in Las Provincias singled out Abascal's performance as the best thing about the film while citing the "poor fit" between the three subplots, which are "too dingy and obscure", as the worst thing about it. Diego Cuevas of Jot Down, also pointed out the film's condition as heir to Vermut's film works, considering it to be simultaneously close and earthy as well as disturbing, underscoring that "playing with knives is risky, and just for daring to do it, [Amazing Elisa] is already interesting."
