Thirty years after the last military dictatorship in Argentina, marks don’t fade away. Thousands of Argentineans left their country in order to save their lives. So did their children.

A thirty-year-old woman, daughter of exiled Argentineans, wonders if she’s a "rara avis". Her parents are Argentinean. She was born and raised in México.

Searching for some answers she decides to invite for dinner three other people who went through a similar experience. Seven young people who had never met before gather together for the first time.
