José Rebolledo is a man of humble origins who has a good job at an advertising company and sincerely loves his wife, Conchi. The couple has two children and they all seem the perfect family. Without financial problems they can afford some quirks and have acquired a chalet in the Sierra de Guadarrama where they spend weekends in the company of family and upper class friends, playing sports and having barbecues. However, for José, within this apparent happiness lies a deep sense of frustration with the lifestyle he has chosen. José finds himself out of place in this bourgeois life.
