Rosario sees her days go by under the yoke of her responsibility as caregiver for her ill husband. Silently, she bears the burden of a marriage that has dried up. No one in her family knows how she feels; everyone keeps up appearances. A struggle has begun between her duty and her own desires.
About the Director
Mexico City native Marlén Ríos-Farjat moved as a young girl to the northern city of Monterrey, where she became a Public Accountant. Having graduated from Universidad Autónoma de Nuevo León, she felt the need to follow her true passion: film. With this in mind, she enrolled in as many film courses as she could find and produced several short films in Monterrey.
