Synopsis:
When finance girlie Celia is forced to visit her rundown local laundromat, she collides with Alda, an Argentine cleaner, and must confront her greatest fear - small talk. This sharp, witty two-hander pits opposing worldviews against each other, allowing something tenderly human to emerge.
