Synopsis

Charles Thomas (former FC-Barcelona basketball player) was attractive, elegant, virtuous, and a friend to his teammates. It was said that he could fly. But a tragic injury changed everything. The life of the star basketball player for Barça was shattered, and he disappeared amidst horrifying rumors.
Some said he had returned to the United States, that he had fallen into drugs, and that he might have died in a fight. His closest friends feared the worst and had come to accept it. Although no one could confirm that he was dead, that was the prevailing belief. Nothing had been heard from the former player of Sant Josep de Badalona, Barça, and Manresa, the top scorer of the Spanish basketball league in the 1968-1969 and 1969-1970 seasons.
Not even his children knew his whereabouts or his story. The director of this film sets out to find him.
