In a Gothic-styled monastery, a monk named Javier sees the face of another monk, Juan, and suddenly attempts to bludgeon him to death with a heavy crucifix. Both men then relate their own versions of a story of romantic rivalry between them.
A darkly romantic and intensely psychological drama. It feels like a fever dream, steeped in guilt and forbidden desire, set against a stark, oppressive religious backdrop. The atmosphere is heavy with unspoken passion and impending doom.
