Synopsis
editUntil Lucas appeared in their lives, Dani, Carlos, and Toni led a quiet existence without major concerns. They shared almost everything: the house, housework, dogs, their homosexuality, and debts. The debts finally forced them to rent one of the bedrooms of their apartment. Lucas moved in with his long hair, his charming smile, and his muscular body to completely change the life and direction of their home. Lucas turned up dead but ... Who killed him? All had reasons for doing so, or maybe not.
