The Prologue will transport the viewer to a spring night in Madrid at the end of 1929. Manolo, a somewhat cantankerous detective, comes home after a hard day of work. The night seems to pass like any other until Manolo crosses with a puppy, Paquita. At first, the detective does not seem very interested in making a new friend ... but soon he will change his mind and accept Paquita at home.
