The businessman Robert is sentenced to prisson for corruption. During his stay there, Alberto, one of his closest friends from his adolescence who has had a life very different that Robert's life, dies by accident. Mónica, Alberto's sister who works at a lighthouse in the Basque Country, picks up Robert the day he is released from jail to go to the lighthouse and throw Alberto's ashes into the sea from the tower. The lighthouse keeper and the businessman must live together for several days in the lighthouse until the south wind blows and thus they can throw the ashes into the sea. But the coexistence will be marked by the shadow of the friend and dead brother.
