After checking into a beachside hotel, he finds himself in the crossfire of a volatile love triangle between two hotheads and the mysterious and elusive femme fatale Fabiola. The second feature by Juan Antonio Bisonó (Mosh) is a love letter to film noir both classic and contemporary - if the love letter in question was never sent because it got burned to a crisp by its dejected author - and a romantic comedy in reverse, where a breakup precedes the meet-cute, shaking up the beloved and her suitors like a spiked rum cocktail in the Santo Domingo sun.
