Synopsis

Even when an intern (“pasante”) is someone who “passes by”, the use of the word has made the world to be commonly used to describe someone who performs a task in order to learn it better, a sort of improvement period under the tutelage of an expert. In a Buenos Aires hotel, an intern learns about his trade, but also about love, about the difference between winning over and seducing someone, about why people move from one place to the other, and about why busy spaces are the loneliest ones. His guide will be the apparently cold, perfect-mannered and attentive receptionist. But nothing is what it seems, especially in a place where no one can settle nor choose or develop an identity: even the hotel is transformed when you see it at night and from the inside, with its own codes and routines, when you can finally see the people who do live in it. A possible tragedy, a love story, a definite learning, is all that someone who is just passing by can get in exchange for a conversation.
