Helga is a tarot reader and works on an erotic telephone line. The story of his story gives rise to the appearance of different characters who belong to a world without many moral values. Everyone tries to "save themselves" in their own way between having a lot of hope or a little. A TV news program tells about a suitcase full of dollars from the "laundering" of money that belongs to an influential businessman linked to Power. The businessman instructs Helga to take the suitcase out of the country. The suitcase will never reach its destination and will give Helga the opportunity to start a new life.

The film brings together the winners of the first edition of the Argentine National Film Board's (INCAA) annual public script competition, the grand prize of which is the budget to produce a short film. Eventually screened in national theaters, the omnibus film gave rise and recognition to a new generation of Argentine filmmakers known collectively as the New Argentine Cinema—a wave of contemporary filmmaking that began in the mid-1990s in reaction to decades of political and economic crises in the country.
