Javier Verdaguer, a middle-aged man and admirer of Jodie Foster, seeks refuge in cinema to escape the daily miseries. However, his life takes an unexpected turn when a series of chance events lead him to the Filmoteca Soledad, where he becomes immersed in a mystery that defies all rational explanation. In this disturbing story, the line between reality and fiction blurs, and cinema becomes the true protagonist.
