Luis Molina and Valentin Arregui are cell mates in a South American prison. Luis, a trans individual, is found guilty of immoral behavior and Valentin is a political prisoner. To escape reality Luis invents romantic movies, while Valentin tries to keep his mind on the situation he's in. During the time they spend together, the two men come to understand and respect one another. Absolutely brilliant.

Nat Jester says: "This is a lovely film, harking back to older times through its use of the silent film format. This makes the acting abilities of the two leads, Jean du Jardin and Bérénice Bejo, all the more important and they really do a wonderful job. The blossoming romance between the leads can also be seen as a metaphor for the love of cinema, and the way in which it has changed over time. 5/5"
