Miguel (33 years old) is a single man who lives a melancholy life in a filthy apartment in Buenos Aires surrounded by his equally dirty house pets (dogs and cats). From Monday to Friday he rides his bicycle to work across the city. He works as a clerk at lawyer's office answering the phone, filing, and running errands. Miguel keeps himself in very good shape, he does not drink or eat refined flour and sugar, but he detests each and every single aspect of his life. When he sleeps, dreams, wakes up, eats, and rides the bike he experiences the same tedium and discontent as he does when going about his clerical work. Following his psychoanalyst's advice, he keeps a journal where he records his dreams every morning, as well as other thoughts and feelings he has throughout the day.
