For over 20 years, introverted hardware store owner has lived virtually shut off from the outside.
After a chance encounter with Jun, a Chinese man who has arrived in Argentina
looking for his only living relative, Roberto takes him in. Their unusual
cohabitation helps Roberto bring an end to his loneliness, but not without
revealing to the impassive Jun that destiny’s intersections are many and
they can even divulge the film’s surreal opening sequence: a
brindled cow falling from the sky.
