Irene is a pregnant teenager that has escaped from a juvenile detention centre. Javier, who works there, and his wife take her in their isolated home in the beautiful mountains of Jaén, hiding her for months from the rest of the world and living together as they all have agreed to a plan... Manuel Martín Cuenca explores again a dark and sinister side of human beings with a well-measured and atmospheric pace as well as a magnificent direction of the talented actors’s craft.
