The working title 'A/Z' refers to the street map of London, and therefore, it is linked to the concept of search: the search for new perspectives and opportunities that most of the people bear in mind when they move to London from their original countries. Also, it refers to the 'A/Z', the alphabet, as the short-film is multilingual using the languages of English, Spanish, Basque and Polish, reflecting the multicultural characters.

'A/Z' is very unpredictable film, as unpredictable as a big city like London is. As unpredictable as life is.
