Synopsis by Clarke Fountain
In this highly idiosyncratic art-piece, the drama concerns the relationship between a grown man who is obsessed with getting little girls to take off their clothes (and who is definitely unkind to animals) and his similarly disturbed mother. Among other things, the two are in the habit of going about the house together in the nude. The director, Jorge Polaco, had established his reputation as an art-film director several years earlier with two films exploring decidedly unpleasant images.
