They are a very attractive couple, each about 25. He has medium long blond hair and a mustache. She has dark brown short hair. After encircling their arms around a huge tree in front of the farmhouse, they enter and begin removing drop cloths covering the furniture. Rebeca sits down at a lap top and prompts Marc to start telling their story.Marc begins dictating that in the summer of 1991, his mother Nuria Bellmont, was at the family house when her parents were killed in a car accident. In flashback, a beautiful young blond woman meets tall burly Dimitri, who is a Georgian. The two have sex twice, with growing reluctance from Nuria. Before there can be a third time, dark and very handsome Olmo Mendoza drives up in the same distinctive red BMW. He tells Nuria he was her father's driver and bodyguard and that her parents were killed by the Georgian mafia. Nuria must leave her family house at Costra Grande and not return for 10 years. Olmo drives her away from the home and stops at a small beach for a swim. First he, then she, strip and enter the ocean, where they make love. While Nuria is underwater, Olmo departs, leaving her and the red BMW.Rebeca tells her story. In 1991, her mother, Macarena Lopez, was a punk singer known as "La Maca" and her biological father is unknown. In flashback, Macarena is on stage at a punk club, very pregnant. Baby Rebeca almost died and doctors had to cut into her chest twice. Macarena is walking baby Rebeca in a pram meets a stranger, Victor Mendoza. Victor immediately becomes an integral part of the family and is welcomed by Rebeca's grandparents, the Lopezes. Macarena soon begins hearing voices and is voluntarily committed and Victor becomes Rebeca's primary parent.The storytelling jumps to 1939, introducing Jacinto Mendoza and Julieta, two evacuee children sent away from Bilbao Spain to Russia during the war. The two marry and become KGB agents and have two sons, Victor and Olmo who are raised in Russia. After the fall of the Berlin wall, the two brothers move to Lloret, Spain, the hometown of Marc's mother, where Olmo begins working for Marc's deceased grandfather. Little is known about Olmo after being a driver, though the story is he became a gigolo and was worth it. The parents, Jacinto and Julieta Mendoza, buy an expensive villa on the beach at Denia.Marc's mother Nuria becomes an editor and he remembers her excited by a manuscript from a new novelist, Amaia Zugaza. Nuria and Amaia are shown meeting, being topless at the beach, and then making love in the ocean. At time later, Olmo, ready to change his life, runs in to Amaia in Madrid. The two are shown immediately having sex and the next day driving up to the exact same spot at the Basque farmhouse in the same red BMW car that Marc and Rebeca arrived in.Rebeca as an 8 year old begins to visit with her mother, who tell Rebeca the she only hears one voice, the voice of a boy complaining she is not her mother.Victor and Olmo get married, six years apart, Victor to Macarena and later Olmo to Amaia.

He had made love in the ocean to both of them. Olmo walks to Marc and puts Rebeca's hand in hers for a dance. Later, as the two youths are kissing on the ground at the tree, Olmo's pushing them away from a cow falling out of the tree. Marc sends Rebeca an overwrought love letter, to which Rebeca on the advice of her mother and Victor, does not respond.During their marriage, Amaia is frustrated that she knows little of Olmo's life since he left Russia but their sex life is so hot that other conflicts recede. Marc recalls that Olmo at times acted as a Mafioso and that when Olmo met his mother, Olmo actually killed Dimitri. Rebeca describes her mother going somewhat mad during a full moon, stating that the boy voice she hears repeats "They forced me to be your child. Kill me again."Three couples are then shown making love, in flashback, Olmo and a Russian Mafia associate, Amaia and Nuria, Marc and Rebeca, and Marc and Rebeca in the present. In the present, Marc is shirtless in bed revealing a long surgical scar down the middle of his chest. Rebeca recalls that after Olmo spent the night with the Russian women, Amaia told him to pack his things and leave. He leaves the farmhouse in the red BMW and drives to his brother Victor's to live, where Rebeca, then in her late teens, gives up her room to Olmo.In the flashback, Marc is at home where Amaia and his mother Nuria have become a couple and set up house. Amaia decides to write about the Russian mafia in Spain and after much research, Amaia tells Marc and his mother that Victor and Olmo were soldiers in the Russian Mafia and were sent to Costa Grande by their father. The Georgian mafia killed Nuria's parents to get their home and money. Responding to Marc's questions, Amaia insists she did not know Olmo was involved in a criminal organization.Later, Nuria and Amaia are getting married.

Rebeca relates that 3 years earlier, when she broke travel plans with Marc to the Pyrenees, she instead visited Olmo in Madrid. She arrived as Olmo and her stepfather Victor were having a terrible fight. Rebeca and Olmo drove off in the red BMW and she learns they are driving to the Pyrenees. Marc and his mother and Amaia are also driving to the Pyrenees. Rebeca mother was supposed to be driving with her parents in the same direction, but Macarena stayed home to care for Victor's injuries resulting from the fight with his brother. All of the principals are shown in this flashback, Viktor and Macarena at home and then the hospital, the elder Mendozas at their villa, and the three different groups driving.Marc calls Rebeca from his mothers' car, not knowing that she is also driving to the Pyrenees. From Marc's description, Rebeca realizes that cars are very close and each sees a very large field next to their car, with a group of bulls and a group of cows mysteriously running towards one another. In an overhead shot, we see Olmo's red BMW on a road on one side of the field and Marc's mother blue car on a different road on the other side of the field. Beca's parents green car is visible one the road some distance ahead of the red BMW. A car aggressively passes Marc's mother's car, and she loses control and, and the rolls over several times into the field.
