Christof, Christophe, Christopher and Cristofol are four brothers - sons of the same father and four very different mothers, yet none of them knows of the others' existence. When they learn that their father has been declared missing, they come together for the first time and attempt to reconstruct his life.
Christof, Christophe, Christopher and Cristòfol are four brothers - sons of the same father and four very different mothers. They live in Frankfurt, Paris, London and Barcelona and they unwittingly share the fact that their father, Gabriel Delacruz - a truck driver - abandoned them when they were little.
