Ben Singer (Matthew Broderick) is a failed children's folk singer, a career proofreader, a compulsive marijuana smoker, and a less-than-extraordinary weekend dad.

Floundering in all aspects of his life, Ben's only comfort comes from regular chess games and friendly debates on game theory with his Senegalese roommate Ibou (Michael Kenneth Williams). When Ibou is suddenly struck ill, and an insensitive municipal employee exacerbates the emergency situation, Ben's pessimistic worldview seems unequivocally confirmed.

Thirty-something Luciano Gauna (Daniel Hendler) is odd. A failing screenwriter in Buenos Aires, Luciano lives in an almost intense state of paranoia, afraid of everything from STDs to even his doorman. When his childhood friend Manuel (Walter Jakob), a very successful TV producer, returns from Madrid with his stunning new girlfriend Sofia (Jazmín Stuart), Luciano’s world is thrown into a near desperate funk. He discovers that Manuel has unflatteringly modeled him as the lead character on a successful Spanish TV show called "The Paranoids," which Manuel is now bringing to Argentina.
When Manuel leaves on a business trip to Chile, Luciano’s remaining grip on reality unravels when he’s left alone with Sofia and her alluring charm. |
