Alfredo and Teresa are a marriage from the city of Burgos (Burgos, Castile and Leon; center to Spain) who travel New York City to live their long-time dreamed holidays. However, just after of the arrival at the hotel, Teresa feels strangely uncomfortable by the fact to be there. Trying to forget it, she and Alfredo takes a walk by the city making photographs to the most known monuments and places of the city, but the photos don't match with the monuments as they saw them. Finding a city more isolated than they expected, Teresa starts to suspect if they really are in New York City because all that she see makes believe her that they continue in Burgos. This night, Alfredo wakes up suddenly to see their daughter Isabel, who warns her father: actually they are not in the real world, but in a damaged movie which fail in the edition forces a loop to do it again in the hope to fix the movie. Finishing the travel in the next days, Teresa and Alfredo find themselves without memories of the first travel, again in the plane arriving to New York City. Repeating all for second time but not in the same way, Teresa and Alfredo repeat too the same sensations, making the travel more bizarre when it still repeating time and time again: are they really in New York City? Isabel's apparitions in the hotel room to warn her father are a dream, a delusion or something more real? How is it possible that they see their close friend José María when supposedly he is in Burgos? Are they real people, or characters of a damaged movie?
