Jacob owns a modest sock factory, the entirety of his monotonous life. Marta, his right hand, keeps their relationship strictly professional, defined by routine. Their fragile equilibrium is disrupted when Jacob learns that his brother Herman—whom he hasn't seen in over a decade—is coming from Brazil. Faced with this visit, Jacob turns to Marta for help. Balancing absurdity and melancholy, this delightful deadpan comedy explores the unspoken tensions between these disparate characters. The second feature by the late Juan Pablo Rebella and Pablo Stoll is a landmark of Latin American cinema, featuring Uruguayan talents like Fernando Epstein, Bárbara Álvarez, Gonzalo Delgado, Federico Veiroj, and Manolo Nieto in the production team.
