Irene lives with Mateo and her 22‑year‑old son David. When David, an architecture student, moves in with his supermarket‑cashier girlfriend Clara, their harmony shakes. Irene, despite her liberal views, doubts the uneven relationship, while David leans on his grandfather, a Spanish Civil War survivor who hides past loss. Mateo brings devastating news.
