[Credits] [Tickets & Termine] [Trailer]

Raúl is a cult film­ma­ker in the midst of a crea­ti­ve cri­sis.
When tra­ge­dy strikes one of his clo­sest col­la­bo­ra­tors, he draws inspi­ra­ti­on from it to wri­te his next film. Little by litt­le, he ima­gi­nes Elsa, a film­ma­ker in the midst of wri­ting a script, who­se jour­ney beg­ins to mir­ror his own.
The two film­ma­kers beco­me two sides of the same cha­rac­ter, in a game of mir­rors whe­re the raw hones­ty of auto­fic­tion reve­als as much as it des­troys. But how far can one go to tell a story?
