In the bustling Madrid of the 90s, a young and troubled romantic, marked by his past, decides that love cannot be forced, but it can be kidnapped. After a traumatic experience in a psychiatric institution, the protagonist, a petty thief named Ricki, becomes obsessed with a troubled and beautiful actress. Following a chance encounter, the attraction is instant, but his interest quickly turns into a dangerous compulsion.

Determined to win the actress's love, he kidnaps her, taking her to an environment where madness and passion intertwine. As they become trapped in a kind of psychological game, she desperately tries to escape her captivity, but Ricki is a possessive lover who, although distorted, believes his intentions are pure. As the days go by, the tension between them intensifies; they reveal their vulnerabilities, fears, and deepest desires in a mix of desperation and strange complicity.

Set against a backdrop of black humor and an auteur film atmosphere, the story provides a provocative exploration of the thin line between love and obsession. The plot takes unexpected turns, leading the characters to a surprising climax that raises questions about the nature of love and morality. With memorable performances and a distinctive visual style, this film leaves a lasting impression that invites reflection on the madness that sometimes accompanies the most intense feelings.
