Rafael and Cristina are two people who were never supposed to meet. He is a 19-year-old gypsy who works in a car-wash and wants to make it big as a boxer; he lives with his grandfather and is about to have his big breakthrough as an athlete. She's 34, Hungarian, an actress in the local theatre, married, and going through a personal and professional crisis: her husband is the star of the theatre ensemble and she has been living in his shadow for too long. Without knowing each other, Rafael follows Cristina every day on the cobblestone streets of an old provincial town. She knows, and she enjoys the attention. One day, she turns around and they face each other. The following day he looks her in the eyes and asks: "If you hadn't been married, would you have married me?" From that moment on, there is no way back for either of them. Two different destinies, two different worlds, facing different dilemmas. Despite their ages, Rafael and Cristina share the same need to prove themselves. In their own way, with blood and tears on one side, deep silences and discreet smiles on the other, Rafael and Cristina learn to deal with adulthood and compromise.
