SYNOPSIS | SINOPSIS
Felipe regresa a la casa donde creció en una finca criadora de caballos, después de la muerte de su padre. Ahí lo espera su madre Sandra, su hermano Sebastián y Sebas, su sobrino de 11 años. Felipe nota que su sobrino empieza a replicar lo que va aprendiendo en este entorno. Felipe intenta demostrarle ternura pero Sebas es testigo de lo que a Felipe más le averguenza, su sexualidad. Felipe conoce a Jorge “el sordo”, el peón que está a cargo de los caballos y entablan una amistad. Mientras se celebran los rezos del novenario, los inodoros de la casa comienzan a desbordarse destruyendo el archivo familiar de fotos y creando espejos de agua donde se refleja lo oculto de esta familia. Felipe intenta desafiar la dinámica de poder de su familia pero queda atrapado en ella.
After the death of his father, Felipe returns to the house where he grew up on a horse-breeding farm. Waiting for him there are his mother Sandra, his brother Sebastián, and Sebas, his 11-year-old nephew. Felipe notices that his nephew begins to replicate what he is learning in this environment. Felipe tries to show him tenderness, but Sebas witnesses what embarrasses Felipe the most: his sexuality. Felipe meets Jorge “el sordo” (the deaf one), the farmhand in charge of the horses, and they strike up a friendship. As the Catholic prayers of his father are being held, the house’s toilets start to overflow, destroying the family photo archive and creating pools of water that reflect the hidden secrets of the family. Felipe tries to challenge the family’s power dynamics but ends up trapped in them.
