In a dimly lit bar, former psychiatrist Juan Carlos Castro drinks to forget the landmark case he handled at the country's most famous psychiatric hospital—a case that dragged him into his current state of ruin and decline. "The Gómez case was the strangest thing," he tells anyone willing to listen, and Luis Peralta happens to be one of them. At the bar, Peralta listens to the mysterious story the psychiatrist repeats over and over. Eventually, unable to hide his astonishment at the fantastic tale, Peralta laughs uncontrollably, all the while feverishly calculating how to turn the situation to his advantage. Is it all a game? Is it all just imagination? Or is it all real?
