    A man tries to leave his wild life behind him for the sake of a young boy in this comedy drama. Pedro is a dentist who lives and works in Madrid. Pedro enjoys a freewheeling sex life until his sister Violetta arrives at his door with a special request. Violetta is traveling to India for two weeks, and wants Pedro to look after her son, nine-year-old Bernardo, while she's away. Pedro initially bristles at the idea of playing babysitter, but he soon warms to the situation, and develops a paternal bond with his nephew. Pedro also gets some help from Manuel, a former boyfriend who is looking to settle into a stable relationship. When Pedro gets word that Violetta has been arrested in India for drug smuggling and is likely to spend some time behind bars, he realizes that he's going to be stuck with Bernardo for a while -- and to his surprise, he doesn't mind the idea at all. But Doña Teresa, the boy's paternal grandmother, openly disapproves of Pedro, and doesn't want Bernardo staying with his uncle. While Pedro is strictly mindful of his behavior around the house, he occasionally slips out for anonymous sex, and when a detective hired by Doña Teresa catches him in the act, it's an open question if he'll be allowed to have continued custody of his nephew. [Spanish with English Subtitles]
