The hypochondriac Soledad spends the quarantine with her recent boyfriend, a sexy and relaxed boy who does yoga and washes the dishes. But one night, the memory of Orpheus, her neurotic ex-boyfriend, appears lying in bed. Soledad is torn between a ‘perfect’ boyfriend who can bring the virus when he goes shopping, and a memory that knows about philosophy, that will never be infectious … but that does not exist in real life. Since these are pandemic times, a decision will soon have to be made. March 2020 changed all our lives. Plans went to the jar and we had to reinvent ourselves from scratch. For many the pandemic was an irreversible life-changer, others had (and still have) to learn to live locked up, or keep the proper distance from family and friends, seeing the outside world with horror from mobile devices. Many have felt in a kind of apocalypse. However, most striking is how human relationships have been affected, how affections have been transformed since the pandemic. Before it, loneliness was already an important issue, after this crisis, exacerbated by more technology and the loss of social contact, individuals are increasingly afraid to love. From these sensations and ideas was born the need to write a short film, in a comedy key, whose premise it is, to show the fear of the other.
