Les voltes del món

Àlex Izquierdo, an advertising creative from Barcelona, has lived through the golden world of agencies in the 1980s and its decline in the 1990s, until the crisis of 2008, which ended up destroying everything. In his late fifties, he survives due to employment plans, with one foot in the abyss and the other on the property he owns in the center of Gràcia, the only thing he has left to sell before he finishes to collapse His life has changed circles and friendships, except for that of Javi, his friend from high school, professional disc jockey, who works for Álex as a mirror of the uncertain destiny that follows him.When Mònica enters his life, also a former high school friend, it seems that everything has to change, but the job solutions for a fiftysomething are only patches. He wants to rebuild his life, he wants the family he didn't want when he was king of the world. Too many wishes in a post-Olympic and outraged Barcelona, defeated by political and economic power, with almost no room for improvement. Because of the love he has for Mònica, Àlex descends the labor pyramid as if descending through Dante's inferno. During the journey, he will experience all kinds of physical and moral pains and hit rock bottom. It will be when he can't fall any lower that he will start to raise his head. And if it's for the help of some powerful prince, he already knows it has a price.In his case, the bag or life. Or a laundry business.
