“She” and “He” live at opposite ends of Lima. They don't know each other, but they share a common thread: their routine solitude, their fractured social lives, and certain places in the capital that reflect their inner realities. The film explores the experience of living alone in the capital, with its feelings of desolation and unease, and the difficulties in connecting with others—a situation that transcends gender, social, economic, or cultural background.

Three stories, two people, and one outcome. A couple's third date is seen in three different situations where, despite their best efforts, nothing seems to go right. She hasn't gotten over a past relationship; he simply seems unlucky in love. Both will try to break free from their circumstances, only to encounter failure and discontent, which seems to seal their fate.

An independent filmmaker wants to make a movie… Why is it so difficult? What stands in the way? Who is stopping him? And: how many movies can there be in a single one? Complex and fragmented, this is Eduardo Quispe’s sixth film, which, according to the director, brings a cycle in his filmography to a close.

A young man meets a DVD saleswoman, triggering a passionate obsession with her. But things are not as he imagines them to be, and his high hopes can turn into great disappointment, leading him to wander around the city and witness conversations that reveal the generational mindset on human relationships.
