Synopsis

Patricia, a woman from the Dominican Republic, needs a home and an economic security that her illegal status in Madrid does not provide her. Milady, twenty, born in Havana and dying to travel the world. Marirros is a job, a home, and the most complete solitude... just like Alfonso, Damian and Carmelo, men from the St Eulalia, a village lacking both marrying women and future. A bachelor's party forces the encounter between them and the beginning of this bitter-sweet story of sharing a living.
