Overview
UN RETRATO SOBRE LO QUE SIGNIFICA SER MUJER AYER, HOY Y SIEMPRE.
Tres mujeres. Dos épocas. Un único secreto.
Madrid, 2021. Paula siente una profunda tristeza al ver cómo el alzhéimer de su madre avanza a pasos agigantados. Durante años, su relación ha estado marcada por muchos altibajos, por lo que se le despiertan emociones contradictorias cuando se da cuenta de que la brillante doctora Amaia Clemente ya no reconoce a la gran mujer que fue. El olvido se ha llevado para siempre su amor y sus recuerdos.
Barcelona, 1990. Adriana acaba de llegar a la ciudad para estudiar Medicina. Cargada de ilusión, comienza una etapa de nuevas amistades, experiencias apasionantes y romances fugaces. Sin embargo, sus sueños se quiebran cuando se ve obligada a tomar la decisión más difícil de su vida.
Un retrato generacional escrito desde la madurez que reflexiona sobre el amor, los deseos y la nostalgia. Nunca es fácil enfrentarse al pasado, pero a veces necesitamos recordar a las mujeres que fuimos para entender quiénes somos.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A PORTRAIT OF WHAT MEANS TO BE A WOMAN TODAY, WHAT IT MEANT YESTERDAY, AND WHAT IT WILL ALWAYS MEAN.
Three women. Two eras. One secret.
Madrid, 2021. Puala feels profoundly sad seeing how her mother’s Alzheimer’s progresses by leaps and bounds. For years, their relationship has been marked by many ups and downs, so conflicting emotions arise when she realizes the brilliant doctor Amaia Clemente no longer recognizes the woman she was. Oblivion has taken her love and her memories forever.
Barcelona, 1990. Adriana just moved to town to study medicine. Full of illusions, she begins a new phase of friendships, thrilling experiences, and fleeting affairs. But her dreams shatter when she is forced to make the hardest decision of her life.
A generational portrait written from maturity, which reflects about love, desire, and nostalgia. It is never easy to confront the past, but sometimes we need to remember the women we were to understand the women we are.
