Lucrecia Martel
Argentina / España / Italia
 - 2004

Winter in La Ciénaga. After choir rehearsals, the girls get together in the parish church to discuss faith and vocation. What does God want from me? How to distinguish between the devil’stemptation and the call of God? When not immersed in those heated debates, teenage girls Amalia and Josefina whisper secretly about French kisses. Josefina comes from a conservativeprovincial family, whereas Amalia lives in the now run-down Hotel Termas, owned by her family, where she lives with her mother, Helena and her uncle Freddy. Following a chanceencounter between Amalia and Dr Jano, who is a guest at the hotel, Amalia announces to her friend Josefina that she has at last found a mission to complete: to save a single man. Dr Janowill be caught up in a web of good intentions. The respected provincial doctor’s world is on the brink of collapse.
