Rubén is a lonely truck driver who has been covering for years the motorway from Asunción del Paraguay to Buenos Aires. However, today's journey will be different. In a motorway stop near Asunción, Jacinta shows up an hour later to begin a journey by track which is going to take her to Buenos Aires. Rubén finds out at that very moment that little Anahí, who's 8 months old, will travel with them. Winner of the Caméra d’Or (Golden Camera) for best debuting director at Cannes Film Festival.

At the heart of a collection is memory, nurtured from the past and projecting into the future.
