Antonio plays a smooth and
sexy young gigilo who will do anything for money so he can
take his beloved young brother to Baton Rouge. This film has
plenty of plot twists. Antonio's character (also called Antonio)
becomes involved with Isabel Harris (Carmen Maura), a mature,
intelligent and very rich woman who suffers from terrible
nightmares. Antonio's encounter with Isabel is the great opportunity
that he has been waiting for. Antonio and Ana (Victoria Abril),
Isabel's psychiatrist, plan the perfect crime. But, Antonio
tragically realizes too late that the two women are really
setting him up.
