When Jaime was a child, his brother Alex kills their father, which will cause a great impact in the mind of Jaime. When he grows up, he is no more a normal person. Heavily influenced by his brother's influence he will deal with the decision between working in his parents' lands or selling them to go out of the town. The apparition of a pretty girl and the prison-break made by his brother will cause his fragile world to collapse, as things are not going to be the same. With a very unusual script, the movie could have been different from usual. However, the story is told to us in a way that makes it very unbelievable. None of the actors results convincing, and most characters are empty and senseless. The trauma of the main character is also bad done, as he just does weird things sometimes, but is totally normal the rest of the time. The only good point (to say something) is watching Pablo Rivero play the part of the bad one, which is unusual. Unluckily, he is not able to do it very good, as he is not able to show the evilness of his character very correctly. Maybe a more logical story could have let this movie to be better, but the absurd plot and the not outstanding work of actors makes it easy to forget.
