Adan and Paloma, a young painter and his girlfriend, visit an apartment for rent. Here they will come across a sofisticated and peculiar land lady, who lives upstairs, that will show them the place. The apartment is old, big and with lots of light. Just the thing they were looking for. What brings there attention most of all is a big and old mirror that dominates the living room. The painter is fascinated by it from the very start. Once they settle in, Adan starts a new painting willing to change his style but not knowing how. When his art dealer, Rafa, drops by to talk about his next exhibition that will take place very soon, he discovers a blocked painter full of anguish. Rafa finds that all his portraits are full of mistery and gives him the following advice: paint a portrait that will break the character’s mask and reveal his soul. 'The authentic portrait is within that we cannot see' Adan agrees and immerses in a passionate creative process...
