Elderly author Guzmán is tasked with taking care of his teenage grandson, David for a few days while the lad's mother is out of town. The two are virtual strangers, having met only a few times during the boy's whole life, as a consequence of a deep rift between the cantankerous old man and David's mother. The visit starts off pretty cold; a few short arguments, but mostly the pair ignore one other and try to stay out of each other's way. Gradually over time they're virtually forced to interact out of boredom, and here's where we see the wall between them begin to crumble. David tries to help the old man with his writing, offering to do the typing while his grandfather dictates. Guzmán is reluctant at first, doubting the boy's ability to do an adequate job, but soon they are plugging away steadily on the work, making a pretty good team. Over the course of the next few days, bonds begin to form and each sees values in the other that they'd never considered before. The question is, can this trend continue?
