Ernesto (Jorge Bolani), a seventy-eight-year-old Uruguayan photographer living in Brazil, faces the limitations of old age, such as loneliness and growing blindness, which he thinks he can disguise. When he became a widower, he learned that aging is about filling the silences with a spinning record, with the calls from his son who lives far away, with the bank errands to withdraw his pension, with his neighbor Javier's visits, with the wait for a new letter from a friend. However, when Bia, a careless dog sitter, storms into his life he realizes that aging can be about rejuvenating with the intense company of a girl who is not yet even thirty years old. And that life and love are possible even for those who are almost eighty.
