The story
In a Madrid apartment block, Elvira's grandchildren think her space stories are jokes. One afternoon, the kitchen loses gravity, kibble floats, and the grandmother confesses she has hidden a spaceship under the patio for decades. The family must decide whether to accompany her back or whether Mars can learn to stay for dinner.
