In Madrid, three women Ines, Eva and Carmen are
private detectives. They observe other people’s secrets,
and are accustomed judging neither disappointment,
nor the lies, but have problems managing
their own private life. Often, they play with fire and
cross the delicate border between professional and
personal life... "The world of the detectives is finally
a pretext, which enables us to evoke major subjects
such as life in couple, communication between people
or distress related to loneliness". Iciar Bollain
