Overview

Justo has just rented a flat to live in with his granddaughter Lola, a girl with cerebral palsy, whom he has been caring for for years. But at the entrance to the building there is a large staircase that forces Justo to carry Lola in his arms so that she can take the bus that takes her to school, causing a huge traffic jam and a lot of noise every day. In addition, his age and ailments make his task more difficult every day. The best solution would be to install a ramp. So he decides to go to a meeting of his neighbourhood association to ask for one to be installed.
