—One morning Jorge Juan gets a mysterious phone call from an unknown man: he begs Jorge to establish a 'phone relationship' between them both since his overwhelming face won't let him relate to the world in person. As they continue their conversations, the emotional dependency will grow strong in both, as well as the curiosity Jorge Juan faces towards his new enigmatic friend.
—Una mañana Jorge Juan recibe la llamada de un desconocido; éste le ruega que establezcan una ‘relación telefónica’ en vista de que su temible y seductora cara le impide relacionarse en persona con el mundo. A medida que continúan sus conversaciones, la dependencia emocional crece entre los dos hombres, así como la curiosidad de Jorge Juan hacia su enigmático amigo.
