Ignacio, a 37-year-old architect, lives an ordinary life in Buenos Aires. When his girlfriend announces she is pregnant a great weight falls upon his shoulders, as his independent life seems to vanish right before his eyes. In an attempt both casual and somehow desperate, Ignacio embarks on a trip to Valparaíso. Under the pretext of a seminar that is meant to last only a few days, a new life begins to take shape for him with greater success than ever imagined. All of a sudden he starts considering leaving behind his life in Argentina and starting over in Chile. This is the story of an unwanted escape and a life-changing decision that only Ignacio would witness.
