An underground hit that became a sensation in Spain in spite of its DIY distribution via alternative screening venues, streaming and DVDs. In his feature directorial debut, Carlos Vermut expertly leads an excellent cast of theater professionals. Impossible to classify, the film straddles genre between mystery and personal drama, with hints of fantasy, while using an accomplished cinematic style. The story follows five women connected through one man, a mysterious character who forever changes all of their lives.
