The story starts with the main character (an old executioner in Spain in the early 60's) approaching retirement age. As his profession is quite rare, he (a very gentle and nice man, caring, and proud of traditions) begins to worry about who might take his place when he retires. He has a daughter, but, unfortunately, she seems doomed to perpetual "spinsterhood": as soon as any prospective groom learns about her dad and her dad's "trade", he runs away from her, scared. However, a new character enters: the local undertaker, a young handsome man who has exactly the same problem... No girl wants him given his profession. So, you have the woman whom almost nobody would marry and the man whom almost nobody would marry. Obviously, they are meant for each other and soon get married., 1h50

Un scientifique nucléaire, Jorge, fatigué de voir que ses recherches se font uniquement au service d'intérêts militaires, se réfugie anonymement dans un village de la côte méditerranéenne, Calabuch. Les gens ne connaissent pas son identité mais remarquent son savoir, et lui proposent de faire la classe à l'école locale. Lorsque arrivent les fêtes de la cité, la rivalité entre les villages l'amène à créer une fusée pour feux d'artifices. À cause de cela, il apparaît au journal télévisé, et les puissances internationales découvrent son refuge. En dépit de l'opposition du village, le scientifique se verra obligé de retourner dans son pays.
