Synopsis

A girl, Ana, is being interviewed for a job. Ana is hiding something in her recent past. Something which is not acceptable in today’s society. She desperately needs the job to get away from her past. Unfortunately the interview for the job is an intrusive inquiry into her private life and, exposed to this, Ana is forced to remember… but does she, or doesn’t she talk about what has scarred her?
