SYNOPSIS

The life of Teresa, a 49-year-old high society lady, runs just as monotonous and predictable as the ticking of a Swiss clock. Following the death of a family member, her husband’s nephew Eduardo moves in with them. Teresa ventures into an affair with the 21-year-old mentally disabled young man, breaks several taboos and finds herself socially ostracized. Will she still find an avenue of escape?
