Desire

Desire (2017) scrutinizes the frayed bonds of familial duty through the lens of Lucía and Ofelia's fraught reunion. As Lucía prepares for her wedding, the sisters' seven-year estrangement gives way to an intimate, disquieting dance of desire and resentment. Juan, Lucía's groom, and the enigmatic Ofelia form an unexpected trio, their interactions charged with an otherworldly allure that blurs the lines between reality and fantasy. Director Alberto Rodríguez crafts a tense, psychological portrait where suppressed emotions and simmering lust converge, challenging the sisters' fragile détente.
