Through three different moments, between the sixties, the nineties, and the present, the director portrays an emblematic place in Barcelona that has gone from being a marginal corner to becoming one of the epicenters of mass tourism. Somorrostro, now the beach, formerly the neighborhood, is the subject of this dialogue between archival and contemporary images that is, in turn, the reunion between stills of a granddaughter and her grandfather.
