12 palabras

Financial problems force Hilario (Álex Ramos) to accept a job offer of dubious legality, which consists of transporting a strange artifact to his town. However, everything starts to go wrong when he meets his ex on the way. From that moment on, things will start to get complicated for Hilario, who will have to face what he fears the most to get ahead: himself.
