Logline
A comedy-drama about the absurdities of academia that reflects the crisis in Argentine society.
Marcelo is a lecturer at Puan, the Philosophy Department of the University of Buenos Aires. The death of his mentor means that a professorship is available — though Marcelo is not at all interested in taking it. That changes when Rafael, a college acquaintance who’s had a successful career abroad, lays claim to the position.
