A current of the supernatural runs through this lush love story about a married fisherman, Miguel, who is torn between his pregnant wife and his male lover, a painter whose work contains dangerous clues to their affair. Unfolding against the backdrop of a traditional town on the Peruvian coast, Javier Fuentes-León’s ravishly beautiful film interweaves romance, social mores, and issues of self-hate and betrayal. The film won Audience Awards at both the Sundance and Miami film festivals. (2009, Peru/Colombia/France/Germany, 100 minutes).
