Synopsis
Simón must go from London to Barcelona to attend the funeral of one of his friends, Carlos. In the 24 hours that he spends in Barcelona, he will find a city that he doesn’t recognise and some friends that he feels like strangers: María, determined to have everything under control; Úrsula, caught between the expectations she had about herself and what she has become; León, a resentment virtuoso due to his precarious personal situation and Axel, the great love of his life to whom he wrote a song that was a hit some years ago. Their reunion will determine his future and make him decide whether to stay or go back to London.
