As a result, all her love stories and past breakups have also been recorded and systematically stored. As Paula moved and evolved, changed boyfriends and hometowns every two years or so, she also filmed her friends' lives along the way. She filmed them with their boyfriends, who became their husbands, their pregnant bellies, and their new families. Finally the moment arrived when the last of her single friends was getting married. Now, she is the only one left behind. Paula is 35, Argentine, Jewish and single. These four categories didn't seem to fit smoothly together. Why is she still single? Why did her relationships never last more than two years? Is there something that makes her relationships end?35 and Single is a humorous and intimate documentary where Paula begins an investigation into her love life by examining her past relationships. She uses the archival footage from the past ten years of her life and approaches the women in her family, friends, and former boyfriends to finally ask the questions she have been struggling to answer. The documentary follows Paula on an intimate search of discovery to figure out if she should settle down or remain a free spirit in order to find happiness, and in turn explores the key life choices women make (and don't make) in life.
