At thirty, Xinao has no major ambitions in life; he spends his days browsing pornographic websites, drinking and wasting time with friends at night, living off government assistance at home, and is unable to manage his relationships with women. His girlfriend, Ofi, is sincere and devoted to him, but he is detached. Coincidentally, during Christmas when his mother returns to his grandmother's house, her friend Laura (played by Victoria Abril) comes to visit and ends up staying over, leading to a brief affair between the two. Laura seems indifferent afterward, while Xinao finds himself troubled. The next day, his mother returns home and reveals that she is in a romantic relationship with Laura. Consequently, Xinao has to watch as his lover Laura embraces his mother in bed each day. One day, Laura tells him that she is pregnant and plans to raise the child with Xinao's mother to form a complete same-sex family. The child is, in fact, Xinao's, leaving him at a loss for how to deal with this chaotic situation...
