Razones para destruir una ciudad tells the story of a woman who has spent her entire life building an imaginary city for herself. Her obsession with trying to protect it from the indiscretions and the lack of understanding of those around her, has ultimately isolated her from the rest of the world and led her to commit a terrible mistake. Now Natalia has to face her failed life and evaluate it while she writes it as a prelude to the destruction of her city and perhaps even herself.
