Three prisoners are driven to exploit any means possible to achieve superiority – some sliver of ego which will make their debasing confinement tolerable. They often fantasize. They go along with each other’s games. When a fourth, younger prisoner comes into the symbolic cell, his innocence and insistence on his innocence push the men to crisis.

The story of two radically different men thrown together in a Latin American prison cell. One is Valentin, a journalist being tortured for his political beliefs. The other is Molina, a gay window-dresser who fills their lonely nights by spinning romantic fantasies drawn from memories of old movies.

A tormented jazz musician finds himself lost in an enigmatic story involving murder, surveillance, gangsters, doppelgängers, and an impossible transformation inside a prison cell.
