A melancholic drama set in fascist-era Madrid that weaves together romantic entanglement, musical performance, and the dangerous consequences of desire in a repressive society.

In 1940's Madrid. Juan plays piano for Pepita and her on-stage partner Mario. Although Mario really wants to steal Juan for himself, Juan is not interested and Mario resorts to a string of lovers as consolation. When he loves (and leaves) a young nobleman, the young man wants revenge.
