Two stories intertwine over the time. In the present, Felix, pessimistic and lazy teacher encounters a book that dazzles him, while he teaches geography in a detention center for minors. In the past, Rabindranath Tagore, Bengali poet, author of the book that has come to Felix, arrives in Argentina and is hosted by Victoria Ocampo, who lives a brief and innocent romance. Felix becomes more and more obsessed with the story of the poet.
