Editor's Note
Winner of the Camera d'Or at the 1985 Cannes Film Festival, Fina Torres' directorial debut is a spellbinding drama set in a Venezualan jungle. Now a married adult living in France, Maria (Daniela Silverio) returns to the hacienda where she spent her summers as an adolescent. As she prepares to sell the house, she is reminded of her aunt, Oriana (Doris Wells), a mysterious figure who never left the hacienda and appeared to be harboring deep inner secrets. As Maria continues to reflect upon her adolescent days, she eventually stumbles across a secret that will bring Oriana's behavior to light, altering Maria forever.
