Martín and Mariana are lonely Buenos Aires residents living next to each other without knowing. Mariana lives on the 8th floor but has a phobia about elevators. Her long-term relationship fell apart and she's isolated in her apartment looking for Waldo in the city. Martin is caring for a little dog that his ex left when she took off for America. She starts dating the dog-walker but she's distant. He spends more time online than in real life. Eventually, Martin and Mariana finally meets. This is a cold romance of two isolated human beings in an isolating environment. The biggest problem is that the characters don't get together until the very end. It's an artsy romance movie but not one of fiery passion. There is an artistic appeal but not necessarily a compelling watch.
