Two buddies' road trip is halted by car trouble in the middle of nowhere; they stumble on a derelict hotel and are inspired to try to restore it, with the help of an odd bunch of locals.

Four independent short stories but they have in common that they happen in Buenos Aires during legislative elections. A candidate for deputy, Carlos Celestini floods the city with his image and can be seen in each of the stories.

The routine life of bank employees breaks down when one of them commits a robbery and disappears for a few days. That man discovers a possible alternative to the gray life he used to have and, in addition, falls in love. But his plans are unbreakable, and he disappears again. In parallel, another employee begins to live an oppressive existence: he has to hide in his house a big amount of money that doesn’t belong to him. The paranoia increases until he finds a way out and falls in love too. The common destiny brings them together again. The coincidence in their names, Morán and Román, may work as an omen.
