Violeta asks Mono for "a little time" to decide what to do with her partner. Eva arrives in the city ready to do anything to change her life. Meanwhile is the story of "a time," of that time that passes while several stories intertwine in a dizzying puzzle that never quite fits together. A moving description of stories that are woven together by chance, an ensemble account of the uncertainty, despair, boredom, love, and heartbreak that weave urban relationships, a dramatic comedy about the bonds that make up life in the city.
