This is the story of three old friends in downtown Bogotá. A chess player and small-time gambler, a watch maker who refuses to close down his shop, and a Spanish homeopath obsessed with poker. Finding comfort in the confines of their routines, they avoid facing failure at all costs. When this comfort is put at risk however, each man will have to figure out that in life, as in love, it’s never too late to take a chance.
