Ilona is from Trieste, Abdul is Lebanese and Maqroll is perhaps Cypriot. Between them there is an intense relationship of friendship. They separate in the rain. Years later we find Abdul in a Lebanese prison and Maqroll in a Panamanian one for a question of irregular passports. Poor and desperate, Maqroll meets Ilona in Panama. Abdul meanwhile wants to buy a cargo ship. It is the dream of all three of them. In Panama, the two of them organize a brothel of fake hostesses in order to raise the necessary money. All goes well, but Larissa appears, a strange and disturbing woman who has a very strong influence on Ilona. It will be Larissa to prevent the realization of the dream of the three friends. Fantasy, mystery, invention, good literary mediation from the novel by Alvaro Mutis. In the chords of Cabrera, Colombian director from Medellin, an excellent interpreter of South-Central American culture.
