Histoire
Oliveiro is a young poet living in Buenos Aires where sometimes he has to sell his ideas to an advertising agency to make a living or exchange his poems for a steak. In Montevideo, he meets a prostitute, Ana, with whom he falls in love. Back in Buenos Aires, he accepts a contract with a publicity agency to get the money for three days of love with her. Will he get what he's searching for when his ideal of love's pleasure is literally going in levitation while making love?
Résumé
In Buenos Aires, young poet Oliveira struggles to make ends meet, often bartering his verses for sustenance or selling creative ideas to advertising agencies. A chance encounter in Montevideo with Ana, a prostitute, sparks an instant connection and profound love. Desperate to secure three days of intimacy with her, Oliveira accepts a lucrative contract back home. But as he embarks on this passionate escapade, Oliveira discovers that his idealized notion of lovemaking might be more metaphorically 'uplifting' than physically possible.
