Three men, one scorching Madrid summer, and wildly different escape plans. Evaristo braves the beach chaos with his wife Filomena, dreaming of peace amid tortilla brawls and crowded sands. Máximo retreats to the mountains with his entire clan—mother-in-law included—hoping nature will soothe the family storm. Meanwhile, Jacinto, a gym owner turned solo “rodríguez,” stays behind in the city, savoring his freedom while the family suns in Benidorm.
