Madrid, 1937. Una etapa convulsa por los efectos de la Guerra Civil: el odio, la venganza y la muerte desgarran el núcleo social y familiar. Pablo, un joven y pacífico profesor de universidad, se convierte en un objeto de persecución y ensañamiento solo por manifestar su respecto y preferencia por la República. Las amenazas de muerte lo empujan a tomar la decisión de salir de España, marcha que se complica al incorporar en la huida a Rosario, una joven que ha quedado sola tras el asesinato de su familia. A ellos se une la pequeña María, quien ha de reunirse con su madre en Francia. Después de un largo y penoso viaje, consiguen adaptarse a un país desbordado por el éxodo masivo de españoles. Allí se verán atrapados por la invasión alemana durante la II Guerra Mundial, una guerra que no deja lugar para la indiferencia o la huida, en la que acaban envueltos en redes de espionaje y actividades de apoyo a la resistencia francesa. Una existencia donde el presente es el único proyecto de vida válido.
