Synopsis

Philosophical reflections on the everyday and experimentation with bodies go hand in hand in this critique of customs bordering on a performance, with a twist towards the emancipation of pleasure as a revolutionary act. Three heterosexual couples go away for a weekend of swinging to bury the morals of 40 years of Francoism, when in fact they can't help but long for a normal loving relationship. Ghosts of the regime or contradictions of the new democratic era.
