Rocío, an unemployed single mother, has barely enough to eat as she does not receive unemployment benefits. Between feelings of shame, failure and the fear of losing custody of her 8-year-old son Adrián, she tries to maintain the appearance of living a normal life with some help from a neighbour. The situation becomes worse when the landlord, himself overwhelmed by debts, sues her for the rent she owes.
