    • Synopsis
    • The film is a dramedy about Martina, a 35 year old Argentinian woman, who no longer believes in love and who has serious sexual traumas.
      When Martina meets Cesar, a chilean twenty-something, she is turned on for the first time in years. She gets obsessed with him, seeing him as her last chance. But he is obsessed with his ex, Francisca. Martina travels to Chile in an attempt to seduce him, but she’ll have to wait, as she fights her biggest fear: bringing back her sexual demons.
      Along the way, she’ll bump into the possibility that she might be distantly related to Francisca, who strangely becomes Martina’s only support in this nonsense trip. This is how Martina will realize that the root of her need is more emotional than sexual: the yearning for affection and connections she never had before
