- Synopsis
- Paul is a 60 years old writer, who meets a 35 years old woman that
  used to be his pupil.. She will burst into Paul's life in a bold and spirited
  way, rediscovering his sexuality and allowing his illusion of returning
  to his youth.
  One day Laura seems to suffer a psychotic episode. She feels herself
  persecuted and threatened. She enters a psychiatric clinic, and from
  there will appear and disappear becoming inaccessible for Paul, as
  the image of a recovered youth . Paul takes refuge in writing a novel
  that tells the story they are living, while being haunted by the pain that
  produces the fate of his beloved, and a ambiguous and confusing reality
  including mysterious and threatening calls, and the possibility
  that Laura is not a psychotic but someone who really is in danger.
