Description
A Madrid waitress, Lucia (Paz Vega), is mourning the loss of her boyfriend Lorenzo (Tristan Ulloa), who passed away mysteriously. Unable to come to terms with his death, she takes a trip to a Mediterranean island that he told her about long ago, thinking about the novels Lorenzo wrote and the way that his work moved her. In flashbacks Lucia remembers her passionate relationship with him, and tries to reconcile some unresolved feelings. She is also debating whether his death was a suicide or simply an accident. Shifting time frames and memories combine with Lorenzo's stories and blur the activity of the present. Meanwhile, Lucia befriends some people at the beach--Carlos (Daniel Freyre), Elena (Najwa Nimri), and Belen (Elena Anaya)--with whom she finds common ground and another layer of connection to Lorenzo. SEX AND LUCIA, with its sultry eroticism, testing and questioning of fate and the unpredictability of life, and its brightly bleached beach scenes, is a winding, nostalgic journey. Directed by Julio Medem (LOVERS OF THE ARCTIC CIRCLE), SEX AND LUCIA was received with acclaim at the 2002 Sundance Film Festival.
