2024 | B/N | 89:00

Nicolás and Antonia are two inseparable friends who, over the years, have witnessed the success and emotional stability of their friends, while they continue to struggle to find meaning in their own lives. After attending dozens of weddings of friends and family members, which only highlight their own singleness and sense of failure, they decide to come up with an ingenious but outrageous plan: to get married. However, they are not looking for a genuine romantic union, but rather to make everyone believe that they've been secretly in love in order to organize an extravagant wedding with the aim of collecting gift money. In the end, Antonia plans to leave Nicolás at the altar. Hoping that the scandal will allow them to keep the money from the gifts, both friends believe this is the perfect opportunity to split the profits and finally get the financial boost they've long needed to pursue their dreams.
