Plot:

Some scenes are very intimate, and this intimacy is not deranging, but comfortable for the spectator. The film can be considered pornography, because it contains close-ups of female and male sexual organs, and these scenes take up a lot of time. However, the intimacy is not only created by the sex scenes; it also pervades in the dialogues and in the looks that only a couple can exchange in private, where no film crew is needed. Pavel and Natal’ia admit that they filmed some scenes themselves.

Storyline:

Things are not going too well for Gonzalo Montoya. At thirty he has no girlfriend (despite a mutual attraction between his cousin Pilar and himself), he is still a student and has become the despair of his mother. Yet, Gonza is an intelligent, well-bred (if not too well-dressed) and kindhearted young man.

But in the eyes of the conservative society he lives in, he has a major defect, his propensity to think for himself. If he has failed his philosophy exam, it is precisely because he would not duplicate his professor’s views. And now what idea has he got ? To apostatize, nothing less! Needless to say that his decision marks the beginning of a long, long…Way of the Cross!
