Barcelona in 1912 is a city still recovering from the dramatic incidents of the so-called Tragic Week when Catalan conscripts bound for the unpopular war in Spanish Morocco had rebelled at the citys dockside against the royalist forces. In the fighting many were killed and afterwards even more were thrown into prison. Including an Englishman, who was later found dead in his cell.
In the blink of an eye everything changes. Seventeen year-old Mia has no memory of the accident; she can only recall what happened afterwards, watching her own damaged body being taken from the wreck.
