📖 The story

A fictional thriller built from the life and thoughts of Josep Ferragut Pou and Gabriel Alomar Esteve, key architects of Palma's urban transformation in the second half of the 20th century, amid rapid tourism and economic growth.

Sergeant Bauçà is assigned to investigate Ferragut's violent death. In the hours before, he receives a visit from his former partner Alomar, and the two begin a conversation that reveals both their worries for the island's future and the professional and personal secrets they hold about one another.

Dramaturgy by Josep R. Cerdà, directed by Rebeca Del Fresno, with Xisco Segura, Miquel Àngel Torrens, Caterina Alorda and Xen Garcinuño. Produced by Produccions de Ferro with support from Consell de Mallorca and Institut d'Estudis Baleàrics.
