Revolves around a young man named Pere-Lluc, how is determined not to take himself too seriously. Pere-Lluc is prone to commenting on his life in a sceptical, ironic manner. His chaotic, eccentric and uncontrolled actions are the result of a deep-seated crisis. One night when Pere-Lluc is on his way home in a drunken stupor, he bangs his head against an aluminium ladder that has been erected on the street by a young girl hanging up banners on the lanterns. Pere-Lluc falls to the ground, dazed. As he comes round, one thing is crystal clear: the young woman, whose name is Sandra, is absolutely mesmerising. During the course of the next few days he falls hopelessly in love with her.
