Mario, a model citizen, resides in a coastal village in Galicia. He works as a nurse at a local retirement home, where he is well-regarded by everyone. When Antonio Padín, the area’s most infamous drug lord, is released from prison and moves into the home, Mario goes out of his way to make him comfortable. Meanwhile, Padín’s sons, Kike and Toño, have taken over the family drug business. A botched operation lands Kike in jail, leaving them with a significant debt to a Colombian supplier. Toño seeks Mario’s help to persuade his father to take on the debt. However, Mario has his own agenda.
