40-year-old Mariana leads a nice middle-class life. All that's missing is a child. At least if you ask her husband Pedro. Mariana herself really only seems interested in her dog Neptuno. Then she meets Juan, a riding instructor and former Lt. Colonel. But Juan has a dark secret which links him to Mariana's family.

Marcela Said’s assured and intriguing second feature examines how the brutal legacy of the Pinochet era continues to infect modern Chile.

Filmography: The Summer of Flying Fish (2013).
