Manuel (Leonardo Sbaraglia) and Lucia (Celeste Cid) are married and decide to build a house outside the city. They settle in Lucia's mother house but Manuel finds an excuse to flee and take refuge in his parents’ home. Although they don’t want to admit it, they begin to live separated and distance themselves emotionally.

Director Statement

I look back at my generation and wonder: Is the home the space which makes us a family? How can we keep on desiring the same person over the years, if everything we use has an expiration date? What nourishes love? What nourishes desire? When do we stop being young? Or are we a generation that will never stop being young? A daily drama. A movie built in layers, with humor, music and sex, in order to portray the deepest and most worldly desires of its characters.
