Former lovers randomly find each other, and start to catch up, walking in the Buenos Aires night.
Deep knowledge of a person can be overwhelming. Even in the most trivial situations it is possible to find peaks of tension that appear from the underground. Vidrios intends to explore the universe of interpersonal relationships through a series of scenes of isolated appearance, with anonymous characters that are constantly updated and dialogue with each other until they burst a moment in the absurd.

Juliana
Several actresses get caught up in a web of romantic intrigue while performing in a production of Shakespeare's "Twelfth Night."
Delfina decides to spend with her two best friends, in her family’s manor house, her last day before getting married. In a sometimes violent, sensual or caring atmosphere, they share their doubts, their memories, their secrets, but also their bitterness. This intriguing title (literally Mares and Parrots) hides a subtle social unease within the young Buenos Aires bourgeoisie.
Inés
When a prominent researcher in the field of human memory returns home, he stumbles upon the fact that a man's past, as he remembers and tells it, is often nothing but fiction.
A woman who comes to transform the city. Two friends now at odds forever. A man who invades apartments to film women from afar. A writer who plagiarizes books and a translator who discovers it. A UFO epidemic in an unbearable summer.
The life of a man, the death of another.

Celia
카스트로는 직장을 구하기 위해 애인과 함께 도시로 떠난다. 그런데 의문의 남자들이 카스트로의 행방을 쫓는다. 거기다 카스트로와 거의 헤어지다시피 한 아내까지 그를 뒤쫓기 시작한다. 카스트로는 자신을 뒤쫓는 자들을 피해 도시의 거리를 달리고 또 달린다. 작가 새뮤얼 베케트의 1938년작 『머피』에서 영감을 얻었다고 한다. 긴장을 늦출 수 없는 도심 추격전은 우스꽝스러우면서도 신선한 혼돈에 빠지기도 한다.
Clara Virasoro
A young Argentinian woman who works as a museum guide uses her passion - reading - as a means of expression to channel the emotional and working lives of those around her.
Eleven young film-makers got together to collaborate in this atypical project. Atypical not only because of its technical specs, but because of its narrative structure. There are several scenes with only the city in common, and more as a conceptual presence at that than as a precise geography. None of those scenes contains a single "story": Each one of them is part of a larger situation that we cannot see, as though the beginning and end of each "story" had to be filled in by the audience.
