Sandra and David are childhood friends. For him, Sandra is his love and fellow adventurer. For her, David is her mate, and also, her only way to rebel against the insular society that is life in Gerona.

In their teens, it seems likely that their friendship would lead to a deeper, more intimate relationship, but surprise events change things forever, diverting the course of their student lives.

Directed by Sílvia Munt who also stars alongside Eva Baeza. 

The marriage between the Vienas, a theatre director and Daniel, a geriatric doctor has hit the rocks. They love each other but at the same time they can’t bear to be with each other. Both take refuge in their work to fill the void that is their relationship. They are poles apart, their needs very different…

Or perhaps not: We’re all looking for the same thing.

This is a story about shared loneliness, imperfect love, unsatisfied desires, and promises which nobody is quite sure how long will last but provide a perfect pretext to continue living….despite everything.
