When Saúl runs into Marcos, a former childhood friend, they agree to have a coffee without imagining that the conversation will take them much further than expected. Through shared memories, uncomfortable silences, and long-avoided truths, Marcos revisits the way he learned to survive being different: turning pain into humor and wounds into a mask.
