Mariel longs to play the role of Isabella in a local Shakespeare production, but money problems prevent her from preparing for the audition. She asks her brother’s girlfriend, Luciana, to convince her brother to give her money, who agrees on the condition that Mariel will not abandon her acting.

Playfully guided by the literary magic of Shakespeare, this beguiling drama from prolific Argentinian filmmaker Matías Piñeiro plumbs the muddy waters of life and art. Lush open-air shots of green foliage and babbling brooks make for a calming reprieve from the uncertainties of the creative process.
