García

At age 58, García, a caretaker at a factory, is finally able to fulfill his wedding promise to his wife Amalia: to buy a home.

García thinks he will finally harvest the fruit of years of work, but his life takes an unexpected turn when he arrives from the factory to find Amalia has disappeared.
