Overview
Upper-class geometry professor Juan and his wealthy, married mistress are driving back from a late-night rendezvous when they accidentally hit a cyclist, and run. The resulting, exquisitely shot tale of guilt, infidelity, and blackmail reveals the wide gap between the rich and the poor in Spain, and surveys the corrupt ethics of a society seduced by decadence.
