Plot

A paraplegic computer engineer in a wheelchair starts hearing noises and voices of bank robbers in his basement.

Joaquín is a wheelchair-bound computer engineer threatened with the imminent foreclosure of her house because he's in debt to his bank. Trying to save it, he rents one room to exotic dancer Berta and her 6-year-old daughter Betty. Meanwhile, Joaquín is blocked emotionally by memories of his wife and daughter who died in an accident years ago. Berta lives with the drama of Betty, who mysteriously stopped talking two years ago. Their initial uneasy coexistence gradually eases, then turns into friendship and then love between them, before Joaquín accidentally discovers that a little gang wants to rob a bank, and he decides to secretly watch them, but his plan crashes against a couple of secrets that will threaten all the plan provided.—Chockys

Paralyzed from the waist down and unable to come to terms with the deaths of his wife and little daughter, Joaquín, a tech wizard and self-imposed recluse, whittles down his melancholy by fiddling with electronic equipment in the shabby basement of his dilapidated house. Under those circumstances, however, when Joaquín reluctantly agrees to rent out an empty living space to exotic dancer Berta and her silent daughter, it is not long before strange sounds and muffled conversations coming through the wall unearths a criminal gang's bank-heist plot. As he summons up his courage to foil their plot, sudden unforeseen revelations will drag everyone into a violent cat-and-mouse game where the light at the end of the tunnel is not always guaranteed.—Nick Riganas
