La vida de los mellizos Matías y Emma da un vuelco cuando, a causa de la pandemia por coronavirus, son obligados a mudarse con su padre, con quien comparten los fines de semana o algunos días en vacaciones. Matías, disléxico como su papá, lo tiene en un pedestal: para él su padre es casi un superhéroe.

A medida que pasan los días, la convivencia entre los tres se torna difícil, asfixiante por las severas restricciones que supone la pandemia. En paralelo, descubrirán que nadie es lo que parece a simple vista, ni nosotros mismos ni -mucho menos- aquellos a quienes creemos conocer. Khronos no es la excepción: bajo esa fachada de lujo y perfección, esconde secretos capaces de trastocar para siempre la vida de todos.
