SINOPSIS
Caín (Javier Cifrián) is overweight, shy and unlucky in love. He works as a butcher in Lavapies quarter, Madrid, surrounded by Moroccan, Bangladeshi, Chinese, Senegalese, Bulgarian, and Peruvian immigrants. But Cain feels alone. His family are his brother Abel (Asier Etxeandia), who has all that Cain desires: he is handsome, charming, he is married to a pretty woman and have twins. The story starts when Cain discovers that Abel got Aisha (Nur Al Levi) pregnant. She is an attractive neighbour, daughter of immigrants from Bangladesh and Muslims. Caín surprised everybody when he decided to impersonate as the father and assume the maintenance and education of the children.
