About this event
Book tickets for two or more of our Edinburgh Spanish Film Festival 2026 films in the same transaction to receive a discount! This Scottish premiere screening will have a short 5-minute introduction from Gustavo Herrera. In the dawn of the new millennium, shortly after the violent unrest of 2001 in Argentina and the ensuing economic and social crisis, Natalia, Mariela and Josefina, three inseparable friends, live in a suburb on the outskirts of the capital. All three have just finished high school and fall in love with Diego, their lifelong friend. When Diego meets Silvia through an old chat room, the platonic love breaks, and Natalia, with her grandmother’s help, performs a spell that awakens an unknown power inside her, leading to an empowerment with brutal consequences.
