Two men
reminisce the time they spent with two women they’ve lost contact with,
but who left a lasting impression on both of them. One is Claudia, with
a degree in Art History, and who, in spite of her atheistic conditioning,
has paranormal experiences and is able to communicate with the dead. The
other one is an enigmatic prostitute nicknamed “La Mora”, a woman of few
words and a blank stare.
The characters here belong to a generation obsessed with self-discovery
while living among the ruins of a city that’s also full of surprises.
