How to Be a Modern Man
Andres Cuadrado is an old-fashioned civil servant. Conservative and somewhat macho, he takes his job at the Ministry of Finance very seriously. He considers himself above all a person "as God commands" and, consequently, he takes it for granted that everything responds to a natural, hierarchical and immovable order. After an unfortunate confrontation with a colleague, Andrés is disciplined and transferred to the Ministry of Equality. There everything is totally new to him: there are no assigned places, no schedules, and everyone is a vegan. Andres will have a lot of catching up to do to adapt to this new order of things.
70 Big Ones
Raquel is desperate: a series of unfortunate events have led to her daughter being taken and she needs a large amount of money to get her back, and fast. After a desperate plea to the bank, she manages to secure the loan she needs. The problem is that precisely at that moment, a peculiar couple of robbers enter the branch: the drug-addicted Jonan and his partner Lola, who is a deadly combination of smart and psychotic. But Raquel’s stakes are too high, and she knows she must think carefully to outsmart them, save herself and get her money.
+Cuñados
This new adventure of the brothers-in-law begins with the appearance of a corpse right in the middle of the Tui international bridge. This fact comes from what happened a few days ago... Carnival arrives and the Ribeiro family prepares to enjoy the favorite festivities of every good person from Ourense. Two years have passed since the arrest of Alicia Zamora and her Portuguese partner. The brothers-in-law have set up an octopus stand in Ourense, the perfect way to launder the riot money that fell to them from the sky (literally). Between one thing and another, Modesto has become another brother-in-law in the family. The appearance in Ourense of Andreia Nunes (the partner of the detained Portuguese) in search of revenge will complicate things for the brothers-in-law, getting them into a new mess that will turn this Carnival into a real masked ball.
