Pablo, a homesick Casino Rueda (1) instructor, decides to believe he has contracted HIV without getting tested. Things get more complicated for Pablo when Danny, an abusive intellectual, and Leo, his mother's freeloading ex-husband, move in with him. Soon enough, Danny and Leo will jointly take advantage of a hero who chooses not to fight back because, as dysfunctional as it may be, he now has a family. Inspired by true events and featuring a non professional cast acting as themselves, The Lucids tells the tragicomic journey of a man struggling to find meaning in an absurd world.
