The film brings together the winners of the first edition of the Argentine National Film Board's (INCAA) annual public script competition, the grand prize of which is the budget to produce a short film.

The story of a boy who lives in a humble neighborhood and has problems with a police commissioner. The backdrop is the Argentine crisis experienced in the Buenos Aires suburbs, and the first scene portrays the looting of a supermarket. The short was part of "Short Stories I" (1995).
