SYNOPSIS


Inés and Miguel are lovers. During their vacation to get away from Buenos Aires, they take a bus trip to a beach. While on the way, they got into an argument, however, as Inés is unsatisfied with Miguel¡¯s lack of seriousness on their relationship. As a result, Inés gets off the bus while Miguel heads back to Buenos Aires. Inés is left alone in a small beach village, when she finds a small hotel to stay in and start a new life. She tries to forget Miguel and gets to know local people such as the manager in the hotel and the workers. She keeps calling Miguel, however, to try to rekindle their relationship and check his feelings for her. Finally, she meets her sister and her father, who came to the beach looking for her. Against Inés¡¯will, her family spends their vacation together with her there. The director, Ana Katz, plays the leading role, Inés. This film depicts feelings of nonchalant lovers and their everyday life rather than an outstanding and sensational love story. People who have been involved in experiences of obsession or very emotional immature love in their youth could feel sympathy with this movie.(KIM Sunah)
