Ramona has just moved to Madrid with her boyfriend Nico, and wants to start from scratch: She wants to be an actress, she wants to be a mother, she wants to live in Lavapiés. The day before her first audition she meets an older man, Bruno, with whom she has an instant and strong connection. Ramona runs off, scared of her own feelings, but the next day she discovers that Bruno is the director she was supposed to meet. The opportunity is too big to pass and, encouraged by Nico, Ramona decides to go for it.
