Synopsis

Based on a Chekhov story adapted to the modern era, the film follows the journey of a mature woman as she reassesses her marriage during a countryside outing with friends.

Reception

In their book Un diccionario de films argentinos: 1996-2002, Raúl Manrupe and María Alejandra Portela note that it is a "serious candidate for the worst Argentine film in history", heavily criticizing the film's direction and waste of the actors "in morose gestures and existential voids that do not interest anyone", and lambasting the director for "stubbornly literally destroying the Chekhovian tale by inventing useless stereotypes".^[2]
