Synopsis

In the late 70s, the Olmedo family buys an old apartment at number 32 on Manuela Malasaña Street in Madrid. They leave their village behind in search of the prosperity the capital seems to promise. But there is something the Olmedo family doesn’t know: they are not alone in the apartment they have bought… Something unknown will put their lives in danger, and they will have to defend themselves. What if the most terrifying thing in the city wasn’t outside… but inside your home?
