At her summer job, Ivana learns it's easy to create a circle of lies, fiction and love when you're bored.
Two young Argentines, brought together by chance, wander the streets of New York City, increasingly lost in a maze of currency exchange, translation problems, religious vocation and nocturnal flirtation.
Inés visits her grandmother who lives in a town near the sea. Through their coexistence, the contrasts of a young woman and a woman meet at the beginning and end of life.
