Sixteen everyday stories starring everyday people that beg the question “Who Wouldn’t?”
Who Wouldn’t (Quién no) is a series of short stories that portray everyday scenes in which we can all feel identified. Some are oddities that regularly go unnoticed, small obsessions that play out in the middle of the routine of everyday life; others can lead to crimes… in any case, they remain latent within the people’s most kept secrets.
Among these stories, a selfish man performs a generous act; another’s spirit can speak through his belongings; a bachelor lives his first night of love in the most absurd way; a couple self-sabotages to create their own version of fell; and a famous writer hides behind his prestigious facade.
Sixteen stories in which all the characters face their worst fears, their most hidden secrets and their most turbulent pasts.
