THE KEY

A call at midnight reveals to the mayoress of a town that the UCO will intervene the town hall in the morning. He gathers his councilmen to announce the fact. Initial consternation turns to indignation when she and the deputy mayor reveal that there is a diversion of European funds to the party.

The mayor requires a culprit to take full responsibility to disassociate her from the party. Nobody wants to assume it and they threaten to uncover the fact; however, one of the councilmen reveals a memorandum where everybody has dirty laundry that they want to hide, then they are all candidates to be guilty. Reasonable doubt. Alliances, betrayals, surprises, twists and discoveries follow one after the other throughout the night. None of them takes the blame.

The hours go by, potential candidates appear and disappear, personal links emerge or fade away. The night ends and the UCO arrives, but the councilors and the mayor still debate who will take the blame.
