A feature film composed of seven independent short films. Teo, a playwright, and Pepa are two friends in their thirties chatting against a spectacular backdrop. Jorge is a recently divorced executive who moves into an empty apartment. Ángel is recovering from a liver transplant. Benito and Jacinto are two Boy Scout leaders who share a tiny tent. Virgi, a very overweight and innocent 16-year-old girl, has been hit by a car and is covered in bandages. Rosario and Milagros are two street sweepers who find an abandoned baby in a garbage container. Elke is a lesbian who has returned to Cuba to find Cari, a beautiful Black woman she met two years earlier.
