Two neighbors, Elena (a woman with an orderly life, the “perfect” boyfriend, and neatly ironed clothes) and Irene (a free spirit who hates pre-established relationships and being tied down), are forced to spend a day together. They come to realize that they’re not so different—and sometimes there’s no better conversational partner than a stranger.
