The connotations offered in the film are recurrent in Mexican cinema: relations between different social classes and identity. A while back, Juan suffered a brain stroke; today he dependson everybody, including the employees. While, he finds amusement and comfort in horror movies,his wife Alicia tries to fight pain with memories of her glory days as a model.
