Synopsis by Clare Perez-Izaguirre Lopez
Blending a series of interwoven vignettes that satirize Chilean culture and telenovela conventions, the narratives are based on the perceptions of director Raúl Ruiz about Chile after he arrived back in the country after 15 years abroad. This fantasy-based drama comedy combines themes of war, desire, and economical and political upheaval, all presented in a bubblegum soap opera coating. Music by Jorge Arriagada.
