Rodrigo and his mother travel to the town where his older brother just died. In this calm place they will go through the first stages of their mourning.

A story suspended in time, floating between the countryside lost places.

In shades of gray, the calm, static shots show young female visitors to a public hospital in Argentina. This is the place where teenage girls have to make a decision about the new life growing inside them. A few of them have, at a very young age indeed, already had children. For others, the idea of a future as a mother is new and terrifying. In many cases, though, having an abortion isn’t a decision to be taken for granted. Some of the girls have learned from childhood that getting pregnant is your own fault, and you have to accept the consequences. What they know about abortion comes from horror stories of clandestine practices in backstreet clinics. The hospital gynecologists and other staff, who can be heard but not seen, ask the girls about their well-being, their relationship, their family ties, and how they see the future—with or without a child. In these intimate and non-judgmental conversations, the girls respond with powerful candor in their most vulnerable moments.

Leon, Flavia’s partner for eight years, has died. As Flavia mourns her loss, she is also confused, overwhelmed by daily tasks and situations which make her feel fragile and incomplete.

Her encounters with the child confront her with her own doubts and desire of being a mother. Flavia will have to resign herself to the fact that a life project has ended, and learn to find a new one.

Lucio is 10 years old and lives in the country with his parents. Play solitaire in the bush and record the sounds of nature with an old radio recorder. He dreams of going to town when he grows up and working on television. In fact, this is the only means that connects you to that other part of the world that you are eager to discover. One day two subjects who come from the city come to his house by accident, one of them is called Carlos, he is 30 years old and works on television. This will be a very important day for Lucio.
