This near-silent black and white film from Argentina tells the story of a city that has lost its voice, stolen by Mr. TV, and the attempts of a small family to win the voice back. Similar in design to early German expressionist films.

Alejandro, a cab driver, and his girlfriend Cecilia are in the midst of breaking up when they become adopted by a social group led by a bossy husband and wife team, Sergio and Susana. This film follows the crisscrossed fortunes of, among others, a rock musician, a flight attendant, a dog walker with an alarming penchant for over-the-counter medication, and a cab driver, who doesn't really care about his life spiralling out of control, as long as he can sit in his old Renault 12.

A woman in her late-twenties called Silvia Prieto wants to improve herself. Her discovery of a second person also called Silvia Prieto will change her life forever. Maybe not the changes she hoped for.
