The brutality of a father, the indifference of a brother, and the submission of a mother mark Lalín’s childhood and adolescence. Since he was a child, working in Alcalá de Guadaíra, he becomes trapped in a cycle of humiliations that, little by little, shape his character and his way of being in the world. Without resources or emotional coping tools, relationships and friendships leave a decisive mark, and Lalín learns to confuse acceptance with resignation, and forgiveness with helplessness. In this drift, the need for companionship becomes urgent, and the cost of not knowing how to set boundaries becomes visible.
A rural story based on true events that addresses romantic disappointments and the desperate search for affection. A narrative that, without idealizations, invites embracing and valuing the family you choose.
