The seven bridges of Konigsberg, the dilemma that surrounds them and the obsession they arouse in a woman and a boy, join Monterrey with World War II Europe. While the city waits for the Red Army s invasion, the now pick-pocket but tomorrow student of Salamanca, dying mayor, betrayed prince and Prussian general, gathers his friends behind the trenches to recount the stories of the missing girls, to imagine their lives and toast for each and every one of those little ones clad in uniforms and white socks. Girls who were daughters, girls who were sisters, girls who are now dead and cry to be rescued and returned to their homes after the lost battle. Meanwhile, the war lives on on the other side of the ocean, smashing the logic of seven bridges that are impossible to cross."
