Macias Möll spends his days surrounded by clocks and immersed in calculations about time. Driven by a deep desire, every afternoon he stubbornly tries to beat the clock and launches himself down the plaza's ramps in his wheelchair. There he is happy, surrounded by cheering children. The balanced balance between his deepest desire (to return to his childhood) and his present disability is threatened by the sudden disappearance of some children in the plaza, placing him as the sole suspect in a crime that has become public knowledge. A police inspector about to retire, a judge, a bishop, a beautiful young officer, a former Irish diplomat, and a market vendor are part of the cast of characters who take sides in this plot.
