When a young drummer in a punk band learns of his step father's death he leaves his bandmates to attend the wake, and thus begins his journey to find out where he comes from. It's an interesting beginning to this film, that begins in the city(Buenos Aires?) but spends most of its time on the wet, cold, and rainy Argentine pampas. As he carries the accordian his step father left him, he hitches a ride on a big rig heading west(?) and meets the prostitute the driver has hired to accompany him on the road. They both get off in Los Angeles, a small community in the middle of nowhere, and there he will discover his surprising background.
The relationship between him and the prostitute, who either works in a trailer with a red light on the porch, or out on the highway, in the end saves both of them. At times comic, but always involving, this film shows an interesting slice of modern day Argentina.
