The film is about the revolt of a thirty-year old man who renounces his previous way of life when faced with the threat of death during an earthquake. He sets off in quest of everything denied to him until now. His first thoughts are of Eva, his best friend's girl, with whom he has long been in love. The relationship which he forms with her comes to an end because of his failure to respect her personal space. After a period of intense loneliness, they give the affair another try, only this time they set up a "ménage à trois". His cinematic fantasies, however, remain his sole refuge, as he still has not learnt how to make himself heard and get what he wants. The only thing he knows for sure is that it is time he starts living, in the real sense of the word.

Frida Kahlo

Frida Kahlo was born on July 6, 1907 in Coyoacán, Mexico. Exactly 47 years from now, before she died in the same city and her beloved Mexico, many things would happen; she’d meet Diego Rivera, become a world-renowned artist, and allow many of her fans to dress like her on Halloween.

Knowledge of plants and the practice of healing are closely entwined. The toxic or hallucinogenic nature of some roots, and the dangers associated with picking them, conferred a mythical or magical character and power.
