La Tigra, Chaco. A quiet town only 20 blocks long. Esteban returns after years of absence to the place where he spent his childhood summers. He returns looking for his father, Cacho, and to talk "about Buenos Aires". But Cacho, a truck driver who has started a new family in La Tigra, is often on the road and their encounter is postponed indefinitely. While he waits, Esteban meets Vero, a childhood friend that has grown into a beautiful woman. Each step together seems to take them back to the most precious moments of a shared memory. But their relationship is not a journey into the past; rather it holds the promise of a future. Federico Godfrid's and Juan Sasiaín's first feature film transmits the warmth, honesty and sadness of this reunion, thanks to its mise en scène and the performances of Ezequiel Tronconi and Guadalupe Docampo, who give their characters a rare spontaneity.

| User ReviewBruce MNice homage to small town life with an appropriately slow pace and colorful local characters (some likely nonprofessional actors). However the ending was disappointingly inconclusive. |
| User ReviewCecilia SVery quite, subtle movie about the small town of La Tigra in Chaco, Argentina. Life in this town moves very slow. The cast is a good mix of local amateurs and professional actors from Buenos Aires. You can't help but fall in love with this place. It is captured very lovingly by telling the story of Esteban who comes home to visit his dad. Since his dad is out of town for a couple of days, he can't help but wait and in doing so falls for the place. |
