The plot centers on Víctor (played by Quim Gutiérrez), who is deeply attracted to Rachel but faces a major obstacle: he doesn’t speak a single word of English. Despite his friends’ constant jokes about his lack of fluency and their attempts to impress the visitor, Víctor decides not to give up. The short film is a lighthearted romantic comedy that shows that, when there’s chemistry and a desire to connect, language takes a back seat, and the best way to understand each other is by sharing good times.

Directed by Alejandro Amenábar · Written by Oriol Villar
