About
After her teenage son Esteban is killed while chasing actress Huma Rojo, Manuela travels from Madrid to Barcelona to find his estranged father, Lola.
Manuela, played by Cecilia Roth, is an Argentine nurse who supervises donor organ transplants at a Madrid hospital and raises her teenage son Esteban alone. Esteban wants to become a writer. On the night of his seventeenth birthday, after seeing A Streetcar Named Desire, he is hit by a car while chasing the actress Huma Rojo, played by Marisa Paredes, for her autograph.
Manuela travels to Barcelona to find Esteban's father, Lola, a transgender woman who never knew the boy existed. In Barcelona she reunites with her old friend Agrado, played by Antonia San Juan, a transgender sex worker. She also encounters Huma Rojo and the pregnant nun Rosa, played by Penélope Cruz.
