This is the story of three friends. Mateo el Gallego, a heroic – despite himself – civil guard, Juan El Antxale, a fisherman turned drug dealer by bad luck and unemployment, and Benito el Yeye, a resigned and intelligent judicial custodian always halfway between the law and crime. Three friends separated by a place, Cádiz, and a moment, the present. The three of them trapped between the abandonment of institutions, the violent and unstoppable rise of drug trafficking in the province and the dangerous increase in social discontent. Three friends trapped in a powder keg that will put their friendship to the test.
