DIRECTOR'S NOTES:
Following classic mechanism fortuitos meeting, two women, distant for social class and existential urgency, find themselves facing each other to compete on their owen lives, starting from opposite planes and finding a common way of life. The two female leads express an universe that goes beyond their individual existences. A movie no only for women then, but of feelings, of loneliness, of worldviews, in an intimate setting that best stands out the differences and similarities.
