A romantic comedy about a long marriage in crisis that uses humor to explore the messy reality of separation and rediscovery.

It tells the story of Marcos and Ana, who have been married for more than 25 years, but enter into an existential crisis that leads them to separate. The life of singles seems fascinating and exciting at first, but soon it also becomes monotonous for her and nightmarish for him.
