Synopsis: The story of Diego, a young and successful photographer that lives in the glamorous world of fashion, shallowness, and excess. A tragic accident turns his world around; his partner is now in a coma. Unexpectedly, and right at this terrible time, Diego must take care of his son, Armando. Now, both of them have to adapt to each other — Armando to the unknown, homosexual world of his father, and Diego to the closed attitude of his teenage son.
