A woman disappears, and two men start looking for her. Both have a valid reason to, and each has a different opinion on the reasons behind the woman’s disappearance. Their investigation is the base plot for several other stories, shown in non-linear fashion (the audience may think of Tarantino) that will reserve most surprises for the film’s second half. On the background, the Argentinian pampa, with the city of Trenque Lauquen, where all stories convene.
