Ficción (Fiction)

An artist looking for inspiration finds something else when he meets a beautiful woman in this drama. Alex is a film director edging into middle age and suffering from a creative block. Needing some fresh ideas for his next screenplay, he leaves his wife in Barcelona to visit his friend Santi in the countryside for a few days. Alex is surprised to learn Santi has other guests - Judith and her musician friend Monica. As Alex and Santi join Judith and Monica for dinner, they discuss their lives and careers and Alex begins to relax: Life in the mountains proves to be a tremendous tonic for him, and he feels rested and confident. But the idyllic surroundings aren't making it any easier for him to write, and he feels a growing attraction to Monica which he suspects may be mutual - not a simple matter for a man with a wife who is planning to adopt a daughter soon.
