La ley del deseo

An Outrageously Funny Tale of Lust, Passion and Jealousy!

A Madrid apartment in midsummer, the hum of a refrigerator never quite drowning out the tapping of a typewriter. A celebrated film-maker, nursing a lover’s departure, casts his trans sister in a solo play and watches her command the stage. Then the uptight stranger starts calling collect from a phone booth across town. Third-act fireworks from a director who still thinks the heart isn’t bulletproof.
