The mind of Quique, a former failed film director, is lost. Quique becomes disoriented, confuses truth and fiction, and even reinvents reality too frequently. For this reason, his sister Marta, a poorly successful actress, and the nurse Amador settle in next to him to help him.

In 1846, Anthony Hope sails into London with the mysterious Sweeney Todd, a once-naive barber whose life and marriage was uprooted by a corrupt justice system. Todd confides in Nellie Lovett, the owner of a local meat pie shop, and the two become partners, as Todd swears revenge on those that have wronged him and decides to take up his old profession.
