Synopsis: | Actors Menchu Esteban and Timothy Pabon deliver rapid-fire dialogue in elegantly synchronized performances that go beyond shock to fill us with awe. This black comedy starts light-hearted with a well-heeled, urbanized couple who live in a penthouse overlooking a cityscape that could be in any Westernized nation. Victoria, played with a carefree flamboyance by Esteban, is a television journalist who wants a child; Daniel, played with a laid-back but equally passionate charm by Timothy Pabon, is a lawyer employed in a prestigious law firm, who believes in flying saucers and life in other galaxies. Because this young couple can't trust the randomness and meaninglessness of their lives, they are trying to make love at Victoria's peak point of ovulation, based on their cultural preference for a son. Both are filled with conviction that timing is all, until a mysterious Fed Ex package, a backpack wrapped with rope, arrives from the FBI. From that point on, nothing can ever again be the same. Daniel, who is sort of a male Pandora, switches his obsession from the extraterrestrial to finding out what's in the bag. | |||||
