    • Synopsis
    • It is summer in Madrid and it is unbearably hot. Like all the kids who can't afford a vacation, Nata, Sebas, Jamel, Chimaira and the rest of the kids from "La mala familia" decide to go to the swamp to enjoy the day and cool off. They have all changed a lot since the trial that transformed their lives, and although they all struggle to carve out a good path for themselves, the constant threat of the sentence that forces them to stick together is a pressure cooker that reminds them all the time that kids like them have no chance of redemption.
