SYNOPSIS

Isa has it all. She is intelligent, beautiful, young, spontaneous and sure of herself. Feminist and polyamorous, she strongly defends her life. When Guillem proposes to be a monogamous couple, Isa is not sure she wants to change her lack of life. Given her lack of decision, Guillem decides to break off the relationship and Isa has to return to her mother’s house. Living in a world of appearances and comforts, the doubts between new and old lovers, the fascination for new friends that make her leave the old ones behind, the professional doubts before her modern but precarious job, will make the contradictions of Isa and her lifestyle come to light as her world falls apart.

At Inicia Films we understand that production is a way to influence society and connect emotionally with the audience. Since 2006 we have been working to promote new generations of filmmakers and thus give them a voice in today’s audiovisual world.

Through the eyes of our creators, the sensitivity of our authors, we accompany the development of international projects and multicultural talent, building bridges between their experiences abroad and their roots.
