Anger (Rabia):
An impossible relationship played by two lovers condemned to live in the same bourgeois mansion. He’s hiding. She’s free. And both will have to surrender to the consequences of a crime… and the anger from which it emerged.
Christmas Night (Noche Buena):
A Colombian upper class family will go through its worst (and most ridiculous) economic and domestic crisis ever… precisely on Christmas Eve. The final eruption of the Truth will occur at midnight.
Undertow:
A love-ghost from the past will make Miguel accept his true essence… before society and before himself.
