Synopsis

Juan Ignacio (44) is a documentary filmmaker who lives alone with Moma, an old dog, whose ownership he shares with his ex-girlfriend Maite. Overcome by a midlife crisis, he launches into filming a documentary about the world of fur babys, in a desperate attempt to take charge of a debt that he may no longer be able or willing to pay: fatherhood.
