The Empty Hours
On the desolated coast of Veracruz, 17 year old Sebastián takes over running his uncle’s small and cosy motel. There all by himself, he meets Miranda, a regular customer who comes to the motel to meet a lover who always keeps her waiting. There together with time to kill, Sebastián and Miranda begin to get to know each other, and an ambiguous game of seduction begins between them.
