Alvaro is a boy living with his mother in the countryside. One day, he discovers that his blood is extraordinary. This rather unusual discovery, aside from some immediate benefits, doesn’t seem to be important to Alvaro, who is more focused on understanding what life is all about. This witty and colorful comedy mocks beliefs and superstitions, acknowledging how miraculous it is to make it through adolescence.

Comedy set in 1977, in which a renowned playwright (Alberto San Juan) tries to shoot a social protest drama starring a doldrums folk, former child star (Natalie Poza) and produced by a producer and shameless liar (Miguel Rellán). Inexperience, ambition, lack of means and the love-hate relationship with the star director shooting become a craze.

Lola is vegan, Aurelio is a hunter. Their mother just died but the body is lost at the bottom of the sea. They will have to create their own ritual to say goodbye to her.
