Synopsis

Les premières images : un champ de tournesols au crépuscule. Un homme sort furtivement de la plantation, monte dans sa voiture, démarre et s’éloigne. On le voit plus tard, étendu sur son lit dans une chambre de motel : il parle au téléphone avec sa femme, approuve mollement ses décisions domestiques, tout en regardant à la télévision les nouvelles régionales : une jeune fille a été retrouvée dans un champ de tournesols « à Cerredo, près de Santa-Cruz-de-Mira », elle a été tuée après avoir été violée. La télévision montre la jeune morte sur un brancard, et ses parents accablés de douleur…

Front russe, hiver 1943. la Division bleue est composée de 18 000 volontaires espagnols envoyés sur le Front de l’Est afin de prêter main-forte aux troupes allemandes. Un matin, un bataillon de la Division bleue découvre une série de têtes de chevaux éparpillés sur la surface gelée du lac, sur un des chevaux, le corps d’un officier égorgé avec, sur son torse, une phrase étrange inscrite au couteau : « Prends garde, Dieu te regarde ». D’autres crimes suivront. Le soldat Arturo Andrade, un ancien inspecteur de police précis et rigoureux, est chargé de l’enquête. Face à lui, 18 000 suspects. Arturo décèle des liens entre les assassinats et la franc-maçonnerie. Il forme une deuxième hypothèse : la victime aurait pu être un agent pro-soviétique infiltré dans la Division, et « Prends garde, Dieu te regarde », un avertissement aux autres taupes.

Fighting in the trenches of Biscay in 1875 during the Third Carlist War, Carmelo Mendiluze, an army sergeant, learns from a young errand boy named Ilegorri that Manuel Iriguíbel, his neighbor from his native village, has joined their exhausted battalion. Eager for news of his child's birth, Carmelo befriends the inexperienced soldier whose reputation as an expert aizcolari (competition log cutter) cannot conceal his apprehension and fear of armed combat. Panicking under fire, Manuel drops to the ground and smears himself with blood gushing hot from the neck of his mortally wounded neighbor, Mendiluze. When the battle is over, Manuel crawls out from a cartload of the dead, naked bodies as he is transported away from the front lines. Nobody has seen his escape, except a curious, solitary cow.

Jota (Novo), a failed musician whose girlfriend has recently left him, is about to commit suicide by jumping off a bridge when a girl on a motorcycle, Sofía (Suárez), crashes off it. Rushing to help her, he discovers she has lost her memory, even forgetting her name. After telling the paramedics and staff at the hospital that she is his girlfriend, he later tells her the same. He invents an entire identity for her, giving her the name Lisa, and a history of their relationship according to his own fantasies. With the hospital psychiatrist starting to become suspicious, he spirits her out of the hospital and away on a trip to the 'Ardilla Roja' campsite, which he claims they have been planning for some while. As their relationship becomes intimate, their behaviour sparks the suspicions of a family of fellow campers (Karra Elejalde and María Barranco) and it becomes clear that Lisa/Sofía's memory is not entirely missing and she is hiding her own past secrets—notably, the existence of a psychotic ex-boyfriend, Félix (Carmelo Gómez), who is rampaging across the country in search of her.
