Synopsis by Dan Pavlides
Mario (Enric Majo) is a henpecked husband and author suffering from writer's block. He goes to a bar and meets Marta (Nuria Hosta), a blonde bombshell hooker who lives with her homosexual pimp Ortega (Ramoncin). He buys her a drink, and the two begin to talk, and later Mario begins to visit Marta at the brothel. The two decide to live together as Mario leaves his harridan wife and Marta leaves the man-hungry Ortega for good. Marta's fortunes begin to improve after she stars in a few soft-porn movies, and she parlays the skin flicks into a career as a fashion model and begins to appear on the covers of popular magazines. Marta leaves Mario and the heartbroken writer hits the skids. He begins to write a book that reflects his recent experiences, freeing him from his depression and his writer's block at last.
