Renata is a stunning actress, serving her sentence for murder in the penitentiary she calls home. She once was a muse of a painter as well. Now Renata and director Alexis are making a film together. She is a mesmerizing and charismatic contributor. We hear their conversations regarding the making of this film: they discuss the scenes and the concept of their creative work. However, Renata is less inclined to discuss the murder which brought her there. It is a haunting, creative portrait of regret, made in a playful manner. It is a film about the desire to live in the imaginary and poetic world rather than in the difficult and sad reality that surrounds us.
