José, a homosexual magician of 50 years, lived his childhood in Granada (Spain). His father was a gardener in the Buendía house. There he once saw Federico García Lorca. One night of July 1936, a group of fascists assassinated the father of José at the doors of the garden. Today José need to return to the place of his childhood. Maybe to recover the memory or perhaps to bury it permanently. And he also feels the need to unveil Miguel, his current lover, the most hidden of his feelings.
