Five families' lives intertwine amidst the chaos of a farcical coup in Caracas. As the city crumbles, their stories magnify small ambitions, pettiness, hopes and disappointments.

Five domestic stories, five characters, and their families. Small stories that magnify their small ambitions, pettiness, hope, and discouragement, which for each of them are moving, definitive and tragic. Innumerate all of them - rather forgotten with the greatest indifference - in a city overwhelmed by a burlesque coup d'État in Caracas, Venezuela, in April 2002.—Rafael Marziano
