An expectant, ultra-modern mother living in 1913 Barcelona is thrust into a complex and labyrinthine mystery when her psychiatrist husband goes missing and she is forced to seek the help of her conservative brother-in-law in locating her missing spouse in director Joaquin Oristrell's Freudian period comedy.

After arriving home one summer afternoon to find her tearful husband mumbling incoherent words of woe, Alma's life is turned upside down when Leon suddenly disappears. With no one else to turn to than her lovelorn brother-in-law Salvador -- likewise a psychiatrist who secretly pines for Alma despite being married to her sister -- Alma's discovery of a strange manuscript on hysteria and female sexuality proves the launching point for a tireless quest to locate her missing husband and discover the true meaning behind his inexplicable disappearance. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

    I liked this, it kept your attention all the while and kept you guessing. A bit farcical in an Almodovar-sort of way. You won't see any of it coming but it'll keep you laughing. I'm surprised I never heard anything of it before, but I'm glad Blockbuster carries it. I'd recommend it.

    This is a funny, off-beat, intelligent comedy that you should try.

    This movie was odd and entertaining. It was different, but in a good way. The only thing that sucked is that we didn't get to see the end because the DVD was scratched or something. Anyway, I would recommend it for an enjoyable watch.
