Alice Gould is admitted to a mental institution. At that moment it is difficult to distinguish if the young woman has fallen into a delusion as a result of a mental disorder or if she really is a private investigator hired to find the culprit of a murder committed in the psychiatric center.

This thriller is all that we dream that a good thriller should be: a good story, a wonderful cast, an engaging plot, and an aura of mystery and intrigue that is fascinating and wonderful. Oriol Paulo is the director of this film, and as happened with Mario Casas’ El inocento or El cuerpo, his style pervades the entire film that is not resolved until the last second of it.
