Joan Ximénez el Petitet is a Catalan gypsy who pursues a dream. A former musician now —a percussionist, son of Ramón el Huesos who worked with the mythical singer Peret—, and affected by a rare chronic disease, he wants to accomplish the promise he made to his mother before she died: to celebrate a rumba concert on the stage of the Liceu, a great theater in Barcelona, along with a big symphony orchestra.
Music brought them together. Aura, first violin and Manuel, the world’s most popular conductor, are the most envied couple in the country. Artists, famous and rich, their relationship hides an unmentionable secret. He mistreats her, something she has hidden for too long. One day, fed up with her silenced hell, Aura decides to take the plunge and ask for help, then what she had always suspected but never dared to confirm happens.
