The script, developed by Marqués and Rafael Calatayud (En fuera de juego), follows in the wake of unforgettable classics such as La huella, Las diabólicas and Testigo de cargo. We, therefore, expect it holds surprises and unexpected twists, as well as doses of black humour and a high level acting showdown, cultivating the viewer's discomfort "by placing them in a complicated moral situation, due to the great selfishness and vanity of present-day society".

It tells the story of Leo (played by Diego Peretti), a best-selling mystery writer who always goes by the pen name Cameron Graves, who is immersed in the creation of his new book, isolated from the rest of the world in a villa. That is until he receives an unexpected visit from Jota (played by José Coronado), a rather unsettling character who claims to be a journalist.

As no one knows the artist's real identity and only his agent, Victoria (Cecilia Suárez), knows of his whereabouts, how has this strange character come to his door and, above all, what are his real intentions? But a murky secret related to Adriana (Georgina Amorós), the novelist's young lover, seems to be behind this mysterious visit. A duel of lies, betrayal, threats and death will then ensue between the two men.

Puntos suspensivos is produced by Álvaro Longoria, of Morena Films, with the participation of Prime Video and RTVE, as well as the financial support of the Regional Government of Extremadura. It will be distributed in Spain by Vértice 360.
