Fiction | 1h10
Synopsis:
Rosa, a contemporary music composer, agrees to give her first television interview at her colleague Tere's house to keep it a secret from her husband. What begins as a simple professional conversation turns into an absurd and comic portrait of the rivalries and affections between three women—Rosa, Tere, and her daughter Luisa—disturbed by power cuts, a dog that won't stop barking, and the visit of a famous composer. As the interview descends into chaos, family and artistic tensions resurface, revealing with humor the fragility of prestige and the strength of complicity.
