Cundo emigrated to Argentina to seek a new life. Ten years later he returns home, to the funeral of an old friend, Suso. The film chronicles the reunion with family and friends and how Cundo wants to fulfill the ultimate dream of Suso. The film is a tribute to friendship.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Director Tom Fernández cast real-life friends Gonzalo de Castro and Javier Cámara, whose decades of off-screen chemistry fuels every barbed joke and loaded silence.
The film captures a specifically Spanish masculine ritual: the 'quedada,' where grown men reunite to do something pointless while avoiding actual emotional conversation. The tower is the excuse.
