SYNOPSIS

Juan and Mauri work as security guards in an exclusive luxury parking garage frequented by wealthy tourists.

"It was born from an everyday situation. Every time I went to my girlfriend’s house, I’d say hello to the parking guards. One day I thought: ‘There’s a story here.’ The simplest situations can hide powerful human stories. I shared the idea with Víctor Castilla, and we started writing together. There were many drafts, a lot of work over about nine months, until we arrived at this crazy thing we’re now filming."
