The film tells the story of an endless night with Alsa, a central character with insomnia and continuous delusions, while an impossible movie is shot behind her back. Mental illnesses, pills, the fear of the future and the present, suicide as an escape door to darkness, the mediocrity of the artist and the despair of Spain today and the obsessive search for endurance and infinity.

Gloria is a 58-year-old divorcée. Her children have all left home but she has no desire to spend her days and nights alone. Determined to defy old age and loneliness, she rushes headlong into a whirl of singles’ parties on the hunt for instant gratification – which only leads to repeated disappointment and enduring emptiness. But when Gloria meets Rodolfo, an ex-naval officer seven years her senior, she begins to imagine the possibility of a permanent relationship.
