El cineasta argentino retrata otra vez pequeñas historias marcadas por la vida, busca la humanqueidad detrás de los seres humanos. Poniendo a la cabeza de su reparto al gran escritor y guionista uruguayo Antonio Larreta, Sorín establece un vínculo entre ficción y realidad que hace los miedos, deseos y esperanzas del protagonista sean aún más tangibles.
