La doncella virtuosa o el martirio de San Pedro
Every morning, the maid tidies up the lord's room; Every morning the man watches her through the keyhole; Every morning she builds a story of submission and power.
Every morning, the maid tidies up the lord's room; Every morning the man watches her through the keyhole; Every morning she builds a story of submission and power.

Every morning, the maid tidies up the lord's room; Every morning the man watches her through the keyhole; Every morning she builds a story of submission and power.
Using an hybrid of two-dimensional, photographic cut-out style of animation and an increasingly provocative performance from Paulina Gálvez, we follow the antics of a maid who comes in each morning to tidy up her master's bedroom. What we also see - as does she - is an eye at the keyhole watching her toils. Gradually she realises that two can play games and so she begins to tease him - and not just to sate his desires, but to satisfy her own too. Fairly quickly she has ceased to carry out any duties, but continues to "entertain" her voyeur in a manner that borders on the very soft pornographic. The whole thing has the look of a smutty collage to it, and though the message is quite a subtly powerful one, the joke didn't land for me in the end and I actually felt slightly prurient watching it. See what you think: it's certainly different, and well worth ten minutes.
