State of Impurity

Two conventional married couples are invited to spend the weekend in the house of their friend Daniel. The meal runs pleasantly until Daniel throws the apple of discord: are you still happy together? Wouldn't you profit from some adventurousness? Did you really choose for this life or was it merely programmed from the start? What's wrong about an open relationship? What follows is a recognizable and amusing discussion where all the layers that characterize the deconstruction of monogamy are expressed: fear and desire, awkwardness and curiosity. The tension becomes explosive when the attractive and provocative Alexandra and Jacobo join the meal and announce their intention to have an orgy all together.

(Pope Francis, who grew up in this neighborhood in the 1940s, is a fan). Father Massa (Ángel Magaña), an athletic young priest, is sent to serve a working class community, where he initially faces indifference and hostility.

Kargus

A series of vignettes is woven into a larger story in this first film to be written and directed by Juan Minon and Miguel A. Trujillo. A writer who works in a bookshop to earn a living meets a wealthy American named Kargus looking for talent to ensconce in his projected art colony in the Gilbert Islands. In order to convince the American to take him on as a good prospect, the writer promotes his own stories -- the vignettes seen in the film. One story is about a young man trying to impress his girlfriend with his new car, a car he indirectly borrowed from a rental agency. His efforts to hide the rental sign on top of the car lead to various comical posturings. Other vignettes are from the era of the Spanish Civil War, including one about two people trying to survive by hunting cats and killing them to sell to butchers. Another vignette shows pro-Franco activists eradicating anti-Franco graffiti in Madrid.
