The synopsis of the film introduces Daniel, aged about 40 (played by Félix Gómez), a homeless man who lives alone on the streets. He doesn't talk to anyone and he doesn't want to socialise, but whether he wants to or not, he sees how many different things are going on around him. Meanwhile, Aina (Ainara Elejalde) is in her twenties and from Barcelona, who belongs to an international NGO. She takes an interest in him and tries to help him, but the man rejects her.

Faced with so many refusals, the girl feels more and more attracted and, insistent. This leads her to discover who Daniel was: a top manager of a multinational company who was fired for serious embezzlement and decided to abandon - to protect them from certain revenge - his family, having left most of his money to them. Without meaning to, Aina will make the protagonist's past come back into his life. He will finally be able to accept it, in the midst of carnival celebrations, where no one is who they seem to be.

“Mr. Nadie considers what happens when someone suddenly loses everything and ends up sleeping on the street. It is a face-to-face encounter with the harshness of life. A fall on the side of the invisible, which leads to a confrontation with the harshest reality. But narrated as a thriller and where we discover, through a woman who works for an NGO, the past of a top executive who worked in a multinational. Almost unwillingly he will be able to confront his old life, leading to an open and hopeful ending. It’s always possible to get out of the hole into which we have sunk, and probably by being better," says Calvo Buttini.

Mr. Nadie is produced by Miguel Ángel Calvo Buttini (with his company Salto de Eje PC), Ángel Tirado (Tarkemoto), Xavier Atance (Benecé Produccions) and Juan Poveda (Twin Freaks Studio). It has the participation of the Community of Madrid, the Madrid City Council and Canal Sur. The project was selected by Ventana CineMad 2022 and by Media Andalucía's Sources 2 programme. The film will be distributed in Spain in 2025 by Barton Films, while the Argentinian FilmSharks will manage international sales.
