Overview
Ema is a very attractive but innocent girl, so pretty that cars crash in her presence. In her youth she marries Dr. Carlos Paiva, her father's friend, to whom she is not attracted. They move to the valley of Abraham. Carlos loves her, but decides to sleep in a separate room to avoid waking Ema when he has to return late at night. As time goes by she begins to feel unhappy about her marriage, so she finds a new lover.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A slow, meditative exploration of a woman trapped between her beauty, her obligations, and her unfulfilled desires in a remote valley. The film unfolds with the patience of someone watching a life drift away, one compromised choice at a time.
