- Antonio (Ernesto Alterio), the director of an important newspaper must choose his successor: Maca (Clara Lago), a woman who is committed to cooperation between the members of the company and not verticality at work will compete against the other deputy director, Vargas (Quique Fernández), a manipulative journalist who 'knows them all'.
  Maca has been Antonio's favorite disciple since college, and they are also united by a platonic love affair, but while she seems like the ideal candidate for the position, Antonio doubts her ability to wield power.
  The night that Antonio tells Maca about the selection process, both are locked in the newspaper by a strong storm, and in the course of that night they will speak in depth, discuss and reveal transcendental issues of life, journalism, love, death and sex. An intense and decisive encounter, on the night before Christmas, that will change their lives forever.
