Synopsis

Spoiler shield

Pablo Nazareno is a 26-year-old guy who works at a science laboratory in a low work. After the mysterious death of one of the employees, weird things start to happen in the laboratory, and Pablo finds out that the lab may close. The arrival of Lucía Navarro, a beautiful computing expert, makes Pablo feel that he MUST discover what is going on in the lab... but this may put him in danger. There is only one thing that can give strength to Pablo: the love he starts to feel by Lucía.
