The walls of Tarifa house the final residence of two septuagenarians who were never meant to meet. Miguel, a former bank branch manager, is as measured and predictable as Helena is impulsive and extravagant. Following the tragic disappearance of a fellow resident, they decide to settle their accounts with life: they hit the road in a flamboyant 1967 Datsun, heading for Barcelona, Madrid, and Malmö. Miguel wants to save his daughter from the clutches of a narcissistic abuser and find a troubling love from his youth. Helena hopes to see her son, who lives in Malmö. Each will be the other's mirror in their quest for truth to heal the traumatic wounds of childhood and finally find peace of mind. With his characteristic talent, Víctor del Árbol converges these stories into a denouement full of truth and emotion.
