La Cantábrica is a factory that recently closed in a suburb of Buenos Aires, where four young friends meet regularly during the financial crisis of the 1990s. This sensitive debut is impenetrably mysterious, just like the lives of 12-year-olds all over the world can be.

An uninterrupted rehearsal of Chekhov's 'Uncle Vanya' plays out by a company of actors. The setting: their run-down theater with an unusable stage and crumbling ceiling. The play is shown act by act with the briefest of breaks to move props or for refreshments. The lack of costumes, real props and scenery is soon forgotten.
