Manuel and Clemente, couple in the shower and in various scheming, try to do business with miraculous apparitions. Near the Sevillian town of El Palmar de Troya, in 1968, people begin to say that the Virgin appears and the two friends take advantage of the situation. Soon a network of economic interests and credulity is created that makes it easier for Manuel and Clemente to achieve their goal: a monumental basilica, a religious order of nuns, priests and bishops of their own, and even a pope, Gregory XVII. Satire on the curious origin of the Palmarian Catholic Church and its unique founders.

Manuel y Clemente, pareja en la ducha y en diversos trapicheos, intentan hacer negocio con las apariciones milagrosas. Cerca del pueblo sevillano de El Palmar de Troya se aparece la Virgen, pero sólo Clemente, con la complicidad de Manuel, puede verla. Pronto se crea un entramado de intereses económicos y credulidad. Manuel y Clemente consiguen su objetivo: una monumental basílica, una orden religiosa de monjas, sacerdotes y obispos propios, e incluso un papa, Gregorio XVII.
