Tomás is a young man who watches his absent father repeat, with his younger brother Octavio, the same patterns and lies he once used with him. To make up for missing Octavio’s birthday, their father invites him on a fishing trip and asks Tomás to drive him halfway. What begins as a simple half-day errand turns into a revealing journey, where the brothers must come to terms with the fact that their experiences with their father will never return, while Tomás realizes that, for a long time, he has been the closest thing to a true father for Octavio.

Gema’s suicide attempt brings her three children together after many years, on the eve of an unusually cold Christmas in Guadalajara. Cristina, stubborn and deeply Catholic, sees herself as their mother’s caretaker; Sony, a psychic on the local Latino TV channel, fled as far as she could over twenty years ago and never came back; and Brunito, the much younger one, a frustrated biologist and forty-something gay man still dreaming of finding the love of his life. A cold front moves in and traps them inside the house, threatening to bring back the family’s most painful memory—and place it right on the table.
