Set in Guadalajara and starring Chilean actor Francisco Reyes (protagonist of the
acclaimed Academy Award-winning film A Fantastic Woman), the debut feature by
writer-director Lorena Padilla tells the story of Martínez, a lonely and grumpy old man
who leads a monotonous life working as an accountant. One day, he is forced to face
the fact that he is about to retire when Pablo, the guy that is going to replace him, starts
working next to him. While his stability is suddenly threatened, his neighbor, a woman
around his age, is found dead in her home after several days. Although he never met
her, little by little Martínez uncovers details about the woman, a process that positively
impacts his behavior, prompting his co-worker to think he has a new girlfriend. Facing a
personal crisis, his neighbor’s death ultimately makes Martínez realize that his life is still
ahead of him.
