Hebe

Hebe, in her journey from childhood to adulthood, finds herself compelled to explore the boundaries of the real and the illusory through her extrasensory perceptions. Endowed with a singular gift: glimpsing the past and future as an eternal present, Hebe defies temporal convention, questioning whether her premonitions are pre-written destinies or mere whispers of chance. Inspired by true events, Hebe invites us into the fabric of time to discover whether her gift can and should be controlled or whether she should surrender and succumb to it.

Day 1

Dario Lizardi's life moves as randomly as the rollers of Ailén, his slot machine. Everything he lost during his 35 years of gambling addiction wasn't enough to take him off his obsession. Convinced that luck must be worked, that the most you know your slot machine, the closest you are to luck, Darío dreams of the day Ailén will give him back everything he gave. For that to happen, all he needs is to get a coin, pull the lever and make the rollers roll once again.
