MovieDramaDocumentary
A mirror game between reality and fiction about the creative blocking of a troubled artist. Ricardo Mosner exists, but his character transcends the documentary world. We also see musician Daniel Melingo, the film’s director and co-star, transformed into a ghostly vagabond in the city. The camera captures these specters’ roaming like images of a digital canvas. There is wine, loneliness, parties and sunrises of bourgeois bohemians. The film encrypts its indomitable value in exposing how you can paint an audiovisual picture under the influence of this century’s events and variations. In the end, the film is an act of combining brushes and colors with precision in order to depict a happy reunion in exile.

Malena is an attractive woman, psychoanalyst of profession and tango dancer by devotion. One night she kills accidentally a man and decides to hide her crime. Days after, she sees in the news the man’s wife and little daughter: he was a policeman. In her plan, Malena meets Carlos, work companion of the dead policeman who is investigating his disappearance. He is of Vasc origin and they call him “the Sabina,” because sometimes he answers using phrases of the songs of the artist. A strange fascination captures Malena with “the Sabina,” the man who has to discover the crime she committed and take her to prison.
