Mila and Javier, both renowned surgeons who are passionate about their work, have been madly in love for the past 10 years. They have always taken great care to preserve their extraordinary love for each other and refuse to succumb to the routine of everyday living. But Mila?s unexpected pregnancy, combined with increasing pressure from her job at the hospital, drives Javier to drink more heavily and he ends up being suspended from work.
