A sharp black comedy that lays bare the contradictions, obsessions, and moral emptiness of a Venezuelan man who has climbed the social ladder through easy money rather than effort. The film portrays a glittering yet hollow way of life, marked by excess, paranoia, and emotional dislocation. Oswaldo, weary of his stagnant marriage, embarks on a passionate affair with a television star, believing that money lies at the center of all human relationships. In a world where everything seems purchasable—desire, loyalty, even identity—the film exposes the seductive illusion and underlying madness of sudden wealth.

David and Enrique have been friends for over 15 years. Both film lovers, they decide to venture to the Atacama Desert to shoot a feature film. With no acquaintances, no locations, no actors, and only $11,000 and a lot of enthusiasm, they travel to Chile for 21 days with the dream of making a movie. Everything seems to be going well until, on the last day of filming, a tragic accident ends their friendship.

Ava, an award-winning chef at a big-city restaurant, has lost her spark. Her boss sends her out to find herself to save her menu and her job. She returns home and finds little to inspire her, but when she reunites with her childhood friend Logan, Ava has to get her head out of the clouds and her foot out of her mouth to rediscover her passion for food.
