Gael (30), a photographer working at a museum, witnesses “The Circle,” a radical artist collective, staging a provocative happening to intervene in one of the galleries. Captivated by their art, Gael helps them escape from the police, takes photos of them, and, as a reward, is invited to their clandestine studio, where he becomes the group’s assistant and confidant while seeking a place in their next major exhibition. However, Lucía, his girlfriend, distrusts the collective. Obsessed with being accepted, Gael invites Lucía to the post-exhibition party, where both are drugged. Lucía is assaulted. The next day, she disappears of her own will, and Gael is left to face the toxic brotherhood of the collective. Alone, humiliated, and threatened, in a fit of rage, he destroys the group’s artworks. Now, he must decide whether to remain silent and become part of the privileged circle he always longed for or expose the truth, risking his life and future.
