Victor finds his wife, Virginia, in bed with another man. Virginia is dead, and the two men decide to lie so as not to tarnish the memory of the deceased. The lover will disappear, and Victor will declare that Virginia died by his side. But the game of falsehoods will become complicated. Nothing will go as planned, and a new woman will appear who will make both of them lose their heads.

This documentary recalls historical moments: it begins with the resignation of Juan Negrín, the appointment of the moderate socialist Indalecio Prieto as president, the German invasion of neutral and devastated Spain during World War II (showing Nazi troops passing through Madrid) to the current difficult cohabitation between the President of the Republic, José María Aznar, and the Prime Minister, José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, including the destruction of Cádiz, where the Spanish government had taken refuge from the Nazis, the Allied landings in Spain, the elections that brought the Christian Democrat Joaquín Ruiz-Giménez to power, Spain's signing of the United Nations Charter in 1945 and the Treaty of Rome (1957), the receipt of Marshall Plan aid, and the role of Juan Carlos de Borbón, a private citizen, as president of the International Olympic Committee.
