El Verano Próximo

Synopsis

It tells the story of a young married couple who travel to a resort to finalize the purchase of a beach house. Due to various unforeseen circumstances, they have to stay overnight at a nearby hotel. This free afternoon is initially seen as an invitation to boredom. After a brief excursion to the pier, it's the beginning of a game, a relaxation, a night of openness and inebriation. Back at the hotel, this relaxed atmosphere gives way to a frustrated eroticism, but then, while he bathes, she succumbs to a suddenly serene atmosphere. This is a moment of recognition and solitary courage for her: the acceptance that their relationship isn't built on anything certain.
