Ángeles Blanco is a lawyer who works for an organization assisting people with cerebral palsy. One day, she receives a text on her phone: SOS. Nothing else. Ángeles answers promptly, trying to gather more information, but there is no answer. After a few days of radio silence, another text arrives: again, SOS, followed by a crying emoji. Ángeles knows someone needs her on the other end. In order to help, she will have to find a way to get through to her.
