- Synopsis
- I’m Paula. 35. Argentine.
  
  The last of my single friends from school is getting married. The night of the wedding, I fall asleep.
  I’m still single and I’m a mess.
  
  So I decided to make a film with all the questions that for the last 10 years I could not answer. Going back to meet my old boyfriends, digging into the past, finding some cracks in my family story… opening up closets of untold stories that had been locked for a long time. To find out how is it that I arrived to this point.
  
  Over the past 10 years I have been compulsively shooting everyone and everything for no particular reason. All my love stories and breakups have been recorded and systematically stored.
  While I kept changing boyfriends every two years, I shot my friends with their boyfriends, then husbands, their bellies and now surrounded by children.
  
  Yes, some of us just don't follow the norm.
  
  Should I settle down or remain a free spirit?
