Pablo and Tino are brothers. Their parents separated when both were boys. Tino became Tina, after he went to live with his father.

Pablo writes screenplays and directs films. He is deeply in love with Juan, a charming youth who also loves Pablo.

He finds the best way to forget is to put down and develop on paper that which is missing in his own life.
