August 1993. Dani has just turned 13. His family moves to a house in the suburbs. New school, new friends, new challenges. The beginning of a new life. But the discovery of an abandoned box in his new closet will take Dani on the journey of his life. A box keeping Miguel’s past; his dreams, tears, and worries, makes Dani confront his stand on his own future, considering that perhaps the weirdos are the rest, the bigots, not him.

Euskadi 1985. It's summer time, the holidays are finally here. Marcos and his three friends, José Antonio, Paquito and Toni, anxiously await a promising summer break from the fresh view of 12-year-olds who have little care for where, how or when. They will while away the hours in the maze life has prepared for them, in an old, turbulent and trembling Euskadi. A maze of painted walls, where rubber balls and dreams bounce together; all covered by a sky tinged with the grey of prefabricated concrete, where life and death no longer keep formal relationships.
Salvador Mallo, a filmmaker in the twilight of his career, remembers his life: his mother, his lovers, the actors he worked with. The sixties in a small village in Valencia, the eighties in Madrid, the present, when he feels an immeasurable emptiness, facing his mortality, the incapability of continuing filming, the impossibility of separating creation from his own life. The need of narrating his past can be his salvation.
