In Buenos Aires, the twenty-something Jewish-Argentinean Ariel Makaroff ditches the University of Architecture and spends his time wandering through the downtown gallery where his mother has a lingerie shop and his brother runs an importation business. Ariel has never understood why his father left him when he was a baby, but when his dad returns to Argentina, that will soon change.

A quiet, contemplative drift through youthful ennui and the search for belonging. It feels like a hazy memory, tinged with the melancholy of unanswered questions and the gentle ache of unspoken family histories.
