While preoccupied with the redecoration of her family’s holiday home by the sea, Carmen, the wife of a wealthy doctor from Santiago, is asked to take care of a wounded young man by the priest of the church she regularly attends. Thereafter, Carmen secretly finds herself in the world of anti-Pinochet resistance amid daily tasks in her bourgeois life. Danger thus creeps closer to her and her family. The greatest strength in the director’s debut feature, who delves into the psyche of the Pinochet era, lies in Aline Küppenheim’s outstanding performance in the lead role.
