Plots(1)

Hassan is an Arab boy who migrated to Spain while still being a minor. Thanks to the help of his community, he manages to work in a small mobiles store in the Lavapiés neighborhood. Hassan is gay, but leads a hidden life in which he is not allowed to freely express his sexuality and identity for fear of absolute rejection of his surroundings, that is why he has sexual encounters with strangers anonymously and without raising suspicion or leaving trail. Everything changes the day Marcos arrives at his store and he decides to let himself go. Doubt, prejudice and fear are only barriers. The time has come to break them.
