1921. Spain is in crisis and many of its cities are plunged into chaos on account of the continual clashes between gunmen, thugs, anarchists and corrupt elements of the police. A train is held up and robbed as it is about to arrive in Barcelona. Inspector Aníbal Uriarte arrives in the city to work with the local police. Aníbal and his way of doing things do not find much support from his new colleagues, and suspicions and confrontations emerge almost at once in his dealings with inspector Rediú, a corrupt cop. Aníbal delves deep into the underworld of Barcelona society, dealing with a well-connected mafia boss and also with the most radical wing of the anarchist world. There he will meet Sara, a young temperamental girl. Their encounter will have unexpected consequences for both of them.
