Synopsis

A young woman, upon discovering nude images of herself circulating on the internet, is forced to reconstruct difficult moments in her life that had been completely erased from her mind. She investigates the well-known and protected San Sebastián photographer who filmed them and uncovers a powerful network protecting him. With all accusations falling on deaf ears, all she has to do is make it public.
