David, a 30something boy, overweight, homosexual and with a grappling fear of flying, regretfully returns to his native Argentina to attend his uncles’ funeral. There he will reconnect with his mother and his Jewish family, while embarking on a quest across Buenos Aires to quench his anxiety via driving lessons, cheap healthcare and trying to sleep with any man that shows him a little attention.
