Synopsis: Barcelona, late 1960s. Eugenio Jofra, a young jeweler, meets Conchita on a bus. The attraction is immediate and the two begin the love story of their lives. Eugenio learns to play the guitar to accompany Conchita, but he will have to fight stage fright. Thus begins his musical career. When Conchita is away from Barcelona for two weeks, she convinces Eugenio to do the performances alone. When he returns, Eugenio has become a phenomenon of the city’s underground humor. Little by little, between the two of them they will build the character: the glasses, the black shirt, the stool, the cigarettes and the pipe glass, which will become an unexpected success in a depressed Spain that is desperately looking for a laugh with this singular comedian who he starts all his jokes with ‘They know that…’
