    • Synopsis
    • “Sin Fin” is a one day story in the lives of Javier and María that happens in two different “time moments”:

      - The past time. It describes the day were a beautiful María meets the shy Javier for the first time and convinces him to have a different and special day far away from his routines.

      - The present time. Fifteen years later, Javier comes from the future, substitutes his own Javier version of the past (Javier bis), and decides to live again the day María and him first met. María, today, is a depressive woman. Javier feels guilty for having spent all this time focused only on his investigations and by knowing that by the end of that day, María will commit suicide. Javier decides to spend that day with María trying to recover her joy by making that day special doing the same things María convinced him to do in that special first date. He has only one mission: prevent her from committing suicide.

      These two times will intertwine memories and reality at a crescent rythm until the climax arrives at the sunset on the beach. In that precise moment, in the past time, Javier finally gathers the strength and runs to reach María and asks her to spend the rest of their lives together; in the present time, Javier finally achieves his goal of getting back the joyful María, the same María with whom he fell in love fifteen years back in time. María recovers her joy for living and just about when the sun is about to set, she decides to live. At that moment, Javier vanishes in her arms. María confused returns back home and finds Javier bis sleeping in their bed. She lays down and caresses him. But for Javier bis, none of what they had live together the day before has ever happened to him. María realizes that Javier bis continues to be the selfish person that puts his investigations ahead of everything else, including herself. Nothing really happened. But something has changed inside María. She is no longer the María that Javier bis knows, and decides to say goodbye to Javier bis and begin a new life… with the hope of meeting Javier again.
