Hot summer day. Colombia. What starts as an insignificant afternoon for two sisters, goofing around as they always do, will forever change their bond when their cousins pay them a visit.

While moving into a new apartment, a young woman must contend with the unwelcome advances of a neighbour.

Hello explores changes in two people’s working lives: a Mexican trash picker who separates and collects recyclable materials from landfills to sell by the kilo, and a German freelance computer-animation designer working for the advertising industry in Berlin. The double interview is controlled and manipulated by a computer-generated severed hand which Maria describes as an object once discovered in the trash while working in the violent northern town of Mexicali. This CGI hand was in turn produced by Max, who was born with no arms, and sought refuge in computer-imaging as a means to operate and manipulate a digital reality.
