A young woman, alienated by her work and confronted to her surroundings, falls into a depression that leads her to live in a sewer to find her identity. In there, life is no better; reality appears in images and alegoric figures that change its form and vanishes, without letting the woman communicate with anyone. It's a film with zero dialog in witch the songs takes us through the states of emotion.

The story develops into a lonely town in the middle of the desert, where the only person awake, a man in a suit, is always trying to start a car, but he never can. One day, after walking throught the desert for a long time, a woman and a kid end up in this town. The man in a suit offers them to stay the night. The days go by, and they almost don't trade any words between them. The town is always empty, but functioning. They just pass the nights and days inside, dancing without music, playing videogames or walking on the street, under the neon lights of empty shops, making calls without any answer.. The title (Ballad for a Kaiser Carabela) refers to the first family car manufactured in series in Argentina.
