Synopsis

Lucia lives an uneventful life as an IT specialist in Madrid. When the company goes bankrupt due to embezzlement, she decides to make a radical change in her life and become a taxi driver. In the taxi, she meets a series of colorful people, including Roberta, a theatre producer with whom she forms a great friendship, and Ricardo, a journalist who hits on her at the slightest opportunity. Yet, Lucía secretly hopes that, one day, Braulio, an actor with whom she had a fleeting fling and to whom she owes her obsession with the Turandot aria “Nessun Dorma”, will jump in her taxi and finally become her prince charming. But reality can be stubborn and people might not really be who they seem to be...
