ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

LET'S MAKE A DEAL, LET'S START LIVING.

An emotional novel about two friends. One knows that every minute counts, the other one is about to find out.

Luis is sixteen years old, and his life is turned upside down when he was diagnosed with cancer. For Diego, an oncology resident, life changes the moment he meets Luis and agrees to help him fulfill one last wish: to flee from the hospital and travel to Tarifa to say goodbye to the girl he fell in love with the previous summer.

This is the start of an adventure that will take them, in the middle of August, from Madrid to the coast while Luis's parents and Diego's bosses are hot on their heels. This emotional and passionate story of friendship reminds us of something that we tend to forget: sometimes, it is necessary to make a deal with life and leave all your fears behind in order to take flight and start living.
