Drama

Jorge is a young man whose plans for the future are put on hold when his father has a stroke. For seven years, he diligently nurses his father and works as a janitor while studying part time to get a business degree. When Natalia, his childhood crush, returns from a stint studying abroad, Jorge begins to yearn for something better. He is desperate to find a new and better job, but finds that no one will hire him because he has experience only as a janitor. Antonio, Jorge’s older brother, soon to be released from jail, is an opportunist who has never gotten along with their father. In prison, at a theater workshop, Antonio meets Paula, a beautiful young woman in jail on drug charges. Paula has a problem because she flirted with another inmate's boyfriend.

Plot

Jorge is a 25-year old janitor who is desperately searching for a better job. This undertaking is complicated by the fact that he takes care of his handicapped father who had a heart attack 7 years ago. Meanwhile, his jailed brother Antonio finds a girlfriend, Paula, who wants to get pregnant--then finds out he's infertile and asks Jorge to get Paula pregnant. While Jorge is considering this, his childhood sweetheart Natalia returns after several years. Meanwhile, Jorge's best friend Israel (nicknamed Sean) secretly photographs men visiting an erotic masseur to find out something unexpected.
