Plot

Two strangers flee from their past and settle in an urbanization on the Cádiz coast. There, hundreds of kilometers from Madrid, they try to rebuild their lives, even though the memories are still very strong.

Sinekatalog’s take

Two people with something to hide wash up in a quiet coastal housing development and try to start over. The setting does a lot of the work, turning seaside calm into a backdrop for lingering guilt. A low-key, melancholic drama for patient viewers who like restraint.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
