Determined to commit as many sins as possible after deciphering the code behind Saint John's cryptic Book of Revelation, dedicated Catholic priest Father Ángel Berriartúa heads to Madrid to avert the birth of the beast and the end of the world. Because, according to his calculations, optimistic estimates based on a numerical transcription of the Apocalypse, the dark event will occur somewhere in the Spanish capital on Christmas Day. However, the sands of time are running out, and the ambitious cleric still needs to pinpoint the exact birthplace. As Father Berriartúa thinks outside the box, he soon teams up with an unlikely pair of defenders: José María, an enthusiastic Black Metal aficionado, and Professor Caván, an Italian TV show host and connoisseur of the occult. Now, Ángel must become an unrelenting sinner to foil the arch-enemy's plans. But is there still hope?
