Four women and one man are the last survivors of the "Corpse Recycling Program," a project that consists of recycling the excess heat generated during cremation. To do this, they agree to move to an innovative, isolated building that can only be heated by a state-of-the-art crematorium furnace that only works with corpses. Over time, the neighbors have died, leaving only La Tana, Oliva, María Encina, Sabina, and El Hombre Madroño. They need someone to die in order to keep warm, but they seem destined to live in that cold building. The program is just an excuse to spread out a group of desperate characters who try to defend what is theirs, while learning the importance of care, the suffering of abandonment, and the fact that loving a lot does not mean loving well. Thanks to the intellectual connection between two of the characters, who read and study the "suicidal poets," a window opens onto a magical and poetic plane that will give the community a sense of family and sisterhood, in a tragicomedy where death and surrealism are very present.
