Querer

Miren Torres has been married to Iñigo Gorosmendi for over 30 years. The housewife and mother's life appears carefree on the outside: two grown-up sons, a large apartment in Bilbao and a husband who brings home enough money to lead a good life. But Miren's supposedly perfect world is a prison for her, dominated by depression and anxiety. When she finally decides to leave Iñigo, she simultaneously reports him for repeated marital rape. After Miren has visited the police station with her lawyer Paula, she goes back to the apartment to pack her things. Iñigo is on a business trip lasting several days, so she has time to gather everything she needs for a fresh start. But suddenly she hears a key in the front door. It is Iñigo. His conference has been postponed at short notice due to water damage. Fearing that the police might call Iñigo right now to inform him of her complaint, Miren flees the apartment in a panic, carrying only a small bag that she can grab while running and with her slippers still on her feet. Shortly afterwards, she stands in front of the locked door of her recently deceased mother's apartment. The key is in the other apartment. After trying in vain to get into the apartment, Miren goes to her younger son Jon's shared flat. But her sudden, unannounced appearance raises questions that Jon and her older son Aitor want their mother to answer. Iñigo has now been informed by the police and also turns up at Jon's house ...ow could Miren have reported her husband Inigo for repeated rape after 30 years of marriage? The accusations that Miren makes against her husband divide the family. The two adult sons, Aitor and Jon, are torn between the two.

Mentir

A world collapses for Miren's adult sons Aitor and Jon. They can't believe that their father repeatedly raped their mother during their 30-year marriage. Miren's accusations don't fit in at all with their own childhood memories. Aitor in particular shows little understanding for his mother. If she was so unhappy in her marriage, she could have simply left her father. Why destroy Iñigo's life with an official complaint? It seems clear to him whose side he is on. Although he and his brother Jon have known their father as a choleric, quick-tempered man since they were children. Unlike Miren, who wants to keep her sons out of the conflict as much as possible, Iñigo forces them to listen to the entire text of the ad. At his request, the sons finally visit Miren in her recently deceased mother's apartment, where she has found refuge since the separation. The young men want to convince their mother to withdraw the charges against their father. Will they succeed in persuading her to give in? Or will Miren opt for a lengthy trial against Iñigo, despite her misgivings and the risk of losing contact with her sons?
