Premise

Consisting of a loose translation to the current day and age of Oscar Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray, the fiction is set in Malasaña, Madrid.[1]

Dorien (Carolina Bang) is a popular photographer obsessed with not aging who is hired by influencers. A disgruntled journalist, Marcos (Daniel Muriel), is commissioned to write a report about Dorien, unaware that the latter's camera takes away the essence and youth of the people.[2][3] Dorien has even kept her secret away from her girlfriend Miriam (Dafne Fernández).[1][4] Meanwhile, Marcos' relationship with her long-time girlfriend Marta (Macarena Gómez) is not going well.[1][5]
