Synopsis

The death of Arturo Viaplana gathers together his children for the reading of his will, with the hope of getting their hands on the great fortune left by their father. What they don't know is that his father, before passing away, has not chosen any heir to receive his money, instead, Arturo has created a posthumous joke as his last will. In order to access to their heritage, the Viaplana brothers must pass various tests in a twisted game where they will have to face to the family's best-kept secret.

The film shows an old fashioned family model. The representation of those families that live in big houses in the countryside, in which families with power enjoy their privileges far from reality. Something that the family will have to face between continuing with that model, or moving forward and leaving it behind. From humor, the emotions of the children, now orphans, will be explored, where they will have to fight to find an identity in a family that is not what it seems to be.

The film is directed by Chiqui Carabante, and its cast includes Manuel Zarzo in the role of the deceased head of the family, Arturo. Among his children we find Fernando Cayo, like Arturo Jr.; and Goya Toledo as Monica. In the role of the notary, we find Fernando Tejero. Completing the cast with Jorge José Manuel Poga, Eduardo Vito or Paula Carlo Nieto.
