Dedicatoria

剧情简介

A mix of characters and actions create only a semblance of a plot in this confusing tale of intrigue, undefined crimes, and incest. A newspaper reporter is working on a story about a criminal serving time in jail. He interviews the prisoner, has an affair with the criminal's daughter, and also spends some time in bed with his editor's wife. His amorous life is an adjunct to his searching out the details of the prisoner's case -- though tragedy strikes before the journalist can wrap everything up. In the meantime, it becomes clear that the daughter and imprisoned father had an incestuous relationship, raising more questions than answers. A former law student, Jaime Chávarri became a critic and amateur director in 1963. Chávarri enrolled in the Escuela Oficial de Cinematografia in 1968, but two years later dropped out to direct several amateur shorts and feature-length films. Chávarri made his professional feature debut in 1971 with Pastel de Sangre/Blood Cake. In 1998, Chávarri earned widespread critical acclaim for Sus Ojos se Cerraron/Tangos Are for Two, a Spanish/Argentine co-production of a musical tribute to Buenos Aires in the 1930s. Chávarri also directs the occasional television movie or series.
