East and west confront each other in an entertaining and surprising comedy with a marked social theme, told as a classic thriller and in a disturbing atmosphere of depression.
A strange fog has started to mysteriously invade the city. Nobody seems to know why, except for Xiaomei, a Chinese girl who cares for her invalid mother in a gloomy basement in one of the city's tenement blocks.

The occupant of the tenth floor, Magdalena, who hasn't slept a wink all night because she thinks she came across a strange faceless presence somewhere inside the building, goes down for the first time in eighteen years to call on her eastern neighbours looking for information. East and west confront each other in an entertaining and surprising comedy with a marked social theme, told as a classic thriller and shrouded in a disturbing atmosphere of apocalyptic depression.   

Teatro Español backs this new production by the young yet experienced talents of scriptwriter Paco Bezerra and director Luis Luque, accompanied by a distinguished line-up of actresses like Gloria Muñoz and Lola Casamayor, plus two new comediennes of Chinese origin, who bring to life this comedy-thriller packed with humour and cruelty and heavily laced with sarcasm.
