Things begin to fall apart for Samy (Ricardo Darín), a longtime television writer on the brink of turning 40, when his midlife crisis starts interfering with his career. Suddenly, his scripts just aren't that funny, and he's considering leaving showbiz altogether. Can a pretty new actress (Angie Cepeda) help him turn his life around? Eduardo Milewicz directs this Spanish-language romantic comedy.
