This witty romantic comedy proves that not everything in this genre has to be shallow and cheap. The story involves a husband, Gabriel, and his wife, Gabriela, who, tired of their twenty years of marriage, yield to the temptation of online dating. Despite their seeming mutual alienation, the slightest nod now stirs up the passion. Moreover, their teenage son has taken a fancy to a future work in the porn industry. It is possible they will be able to satisfy their cravings, however – by what means and through which people – remains a mystery.

Imbued with impressive soundscapes, dreamlike and slow-paced, this film is a world where everything is possible and the boundaries between the present and the past, the waking life and the afterlife, are seamlessly blurred.
