Ratón en ferretería

Roman Chalbaud
Venezuela
Synopsis

Adonay Flores, a famous TV producer and writer, lives in a luxurious penthouse with his beautiful dog, Marilyn. One who falls in love easily, Adonay lives surrounded by images of his idol, Marilyn Monroe, until one day he runs across a live woman. Her name is Belén Helena, a girl with the air of a hippie, daring, who he winds up turning into a model. But the girl is inconstant, and disappears more and more frequently, until the despairing Adonay has to take to drink. The hero's self-pity reaches its zenith when, after receiving the prize for the "Producer of the Year", he takes his car and smashes it up at 75 mph. When he comes out of hospital, Flores discovers that Belén, with the aid of a pal, has been distributing drugs at schools using one of his cars. Totally wised-up, the man can only find some solace by going back to his neighborhood and his people. One these subjects he has long wanted to write a novel, the title of which would be: "Ratón en ferretería".
