In Madrid, three longtime friends reunite after years apart, united by the same fate: failed marriages and a life that seems to want to take them back to the carefree days of youth. Pino, a cynical and disillusioned waiter with a drinking habit; Gianni, a charming but tormented screenwriter who alternates between moments of brilliant creativity and self-destructive choices; and Giulio, a bricklayer with an innate ability to charm women, but with a penchant for gambling that often gets him into trouble. The three, despite their differences, have a bond that stands the test of time, and together they decide to cope with their midlife crisis by frequenting clubs and going on romances without too much commitment. They thus immerse themselves in a kaleidoscope of encounters with women of all kinds: from the social-obsessed young influencer to the mature philosophy professor who seeks depth where there is none, to the pragmatic divorced lawyer and the bohemian poetess. But in all their adventures, one recurring theme unites them: a total lack of reflection. Through a narrative punctuated by flashbacks and flashforwards, uncomfortable truths emerge about each of them. We discover that Pino has a never-to-be-surpassed trauma related to the loss of his mother, which has driven him toward refuge in alcohol. Gianni agonizes over having betrayed a woman he truly loved, ending up sabotaging his own happiness. Giulio, behind his womanizing attitude, hides a deep insecurity, fueled by years of losing confrontations with his older brother. Their evenings often spiral out of control, amid comic and grotesque situations, but there is always a common thread that holds them together: the conviction that life is best approached without too much thought. However, the women they meet represent a mirror of their flaws and a constant clash between their instinctive actions and the complex and thoughtful way women deal with life.
