Feminism, Victoria Benedictsson, Leandro N. Alem, the Radical Party in Argentina, suicide, stunts, Edgar Allan Poe, the complicated relationship between low-budget films with a political aim and the film industry, Robert Louis Stevenson, fiction, facts, greed, gold treasures left by the Jesuits in Argentina, the 19th Century vs. the contemporary and the search for truth and wisdom are the background for this portrait of a clash between a Swedish artist and an Argentine film director.

Roque Waterfall leads, at age 30, an unproductive life living off a small family inheritance that leaves him enough free time to wander around in the nights of Buenos Aires. One day he meets Hans, a German intellectual who will try to make a documentary about Roque and people like him, people who do nothing.

A miserable Argentine troupe of actors, dancers, musicians, filmmakers and a girl embark on a theatre tour to some country, probably in Latin America.
