Synopsis: 

Pol Rodríguez builds a story inspired by his family history. Ravalear tells how, after almost a hundred years of history and three generations, Can Moscas is a long-standing restaurant, appreciated and respected by everyone in the neighborhood and frequented by artists, businessmen, and politicians. It is under imminent purchase by an investment fund. They want them out of the building as part of their plans to buy properties and remodel the neighborhood. At first, the news plunges the family into despair; they think everything is lost. But soon, they decide to defend themselves and, with the help of the perfect accomplices, they will fight not to abandon the restaurant... Even if this means crossing boundaries, they would never have imagined.

The series approaches a local story from a realistic thriller that transcends universal themes: immigration, real estate speculation, the idiosyncrasy of neighborhoods, and the sense of belonging or family relationships, as well as the changes that occur with the change of generations. It is a story you can transfer to any large city.
