Madrid, August 2007. Curro is the only one arrested for the robbery of a jewelry store. Eight years later, his girlfriend Ana and their son are waiting for Curro to get out of prison. Jose is a solitary and reserved man who just doesn't seem to fit in anywhere. One morning he goes for a coffee at the bar where Ana works. That winter his life gets interwoven with the others' at the bar, who take him in as one of their own. This is especially the case with Ana, who sees this newcomer as an outlet for her distressing life. Having done his time, Curro gets out with the hope of starting his life with Ana over again. But everything has changed in just a very short time. Curro comes home to a confused woman and a man who shatters all his expectations. He can't even begin to imagine the extent to which Jose is going to alter his plans. This stranger will force him to confront old ghosts from the past. The two men will embark on a strange and frantic three-day trip, a violent journey that will force them to play a game and will inevitably sink them beyond redemption into the abyss of revenge. A story about the violent nature of human beings and the illusion of redemption.
