The year 2000. Maya, a young Londoner, goes to the small village of her Spanish girlfriend, Ruth, who has just died in an accident. She wants to say goodbye, but the shock and anxiety of presenting herself as the “foreign girlfriend” to family and friends she doesn't know and who speak a different language, is compounded by the perplexity of discovering that nobody knows who she is.

Aitana organizes a big Halloween party in her huge apartment in Madrid in the hope that her friend Cleo will come.

Álex and Cata, two young women who live on the outskirts of the city, a desolate place full of empty stores and ramshackle bars where dreams end up fading, have been preparing their escape all their lives.

In the middle of summer, five women rehearse a play in an old mill, isolated from the world.

One night. One city. Madrid. Five conversations. Nine characters. They tell personal stories, invented stories, also an old story that goes on from conversation to conversation, a story from an old Japanese film.

It's the first week of holidays and everyone has gone to Mallorca on a school trip. Except Guti and Saúl, which are grounded and bored stiff in Madrid. They are not throwing out their holidays, tho, given that their end-of-school trip is going to be breaking in the high school and ravage it from top to the bottom. And let the Mallorca guys die of envy. And for once be the kings of the school.
