Synopsis:
In six interconnected stories of lost objects and the people who live in an unforgiving city who've lost them--and find them, we see the stories of--
1. Via, fresh from a breakup, she bumps into a kind stranger she meets in the worst night of her life; 
2. Waldo, a ten-year-old kid who needs help finding his lost keys, and his way home; 
3. Gemma, who reunites with her estranged mother to return her PWD ID, only to find her stricken with Alzeihmer's without any memory of who she is; 
4. Cindy who loses an engagement ring and hires a ring finder to help her find her ring--and with it, her hopes of getting back with her fiance; Dan who loses a cellphone, but after getting a new one, receives anonymous messages that he suspects (or wishes) are from his ex; and,
5. Finally, Marya, who is the keeper of the lost-and-found logbook of her workplace. She is the keeper of the stories and objects she is entrusted with. With these objects and the stories behind them, she begins to confront her own loss and, in the process, gains the courage to rebuild her life in the crowded Metro.
