Plot:
Ruben is a lonely truck driver who has been taking the motorway from Asuncion, Paraguay to Buenos Aires, Argentina for years, carrying wood. However, today's journey is different because of Jacinta, who accompanies him as his passenger all the way to Buenos Aires. What's more, Ruben finds out at the very moment that her little Anahi, who's 8 months old, travels with them. As kilometres go by, the relationship between Ruben and Jacinta will grow. They will slowly sip into each other's soul. None of them talks much about their lives. None asks much either. It's a few word journey but it is not a silent one.
