All sorts of new things are happening to Julio: a love affair, a new job and a project with an old friend. His project is to make a photonovel; watching him, we closely follow the development of an audiovisual narration process. Love is love, and his new job sales assistant in a bookshop. Julio soon realises that it's very easy to steal there and he starts taking whatever he can. This complicates the relationship with his girlfriend, with his project and with his job.

110 min.
Gloria is a lively, attractive 58 year-old Chilean woman about to enter a new phase of her life; old age. She is a great talker, lots of fun and always stands out from the others. Her days revolve around her work, an active social life, and doing what she can for her two children from a failed marriage. She pines for another chance at love, but her relationships never prosper. On this journey, she will find the courage to confront the challenge of aging and the advantages of doing so alone, proudly, with her head held high and without losing the smile that defines her as a woman.

Sebastian, 17, takes over his uncle's motel on the desolate tropical coast of Veracruz single-handed. Miranda, 35, a local estate agent, occasionally uses the motel to meet Mario, her lover. Mario is always late for their amorous escapades, and Miranda has to wait for him. During these intervals, Sebastian and Miranda gradually grow closer to one another, even if they know that at the end of the day whatever happens between them can never last.

Based on a true story occurring in 1974, the film tells the tale of the sisters Justa, Lucia and Luciana Quispe, shepherds from the altiplano who lead a lonely life. Their recent mourning for the death of a sister and news arriving from the outside plague them with existential doubts that will relentlessly drive them to a tragic end.

Lucia is 14, but looks younger. She's thin and has the body of a child. Her parents are divorced; she and her brother live with their mother. Their father Alberto, a chiropractor, only sees his kids occasionally. He rents a cabin at the hot springs. The holiday is going to be short and it looks as if it's about to rain. Their hearts sink on arrival. It's forbidden to use the pools because of an electric storm. Alberto tries to keep them amused and make good of their disastrous family break, but the harder he tries the worse it gets.
