One room. Two men. Nineteen minutes of grief, rage, and desire exploding.
Dazed from a recent break-up, model Raul arrives late to a photoshoot, but photographer Mauri decides to let it off the hook. As time passes by Raul struggles to focus in front of the camera, rather seeking consolation in the photographer. Grief turns to rage turns to lust as emotions rise and develop between the ornate green walls of the room. When one door is forced shut, another one is pushed open.
