It’s the 50’s and Lucio Bordenave, a watchmaker, has a quiet existence in a Buenos Aires neighborhood called Parque Chas, an area where the streets have no corners and are conformed by circles like a labyrinth. One day, without clear reasons, his wife Diana is committed to a disturbing “Health Institute that cures special people”. Bordenave suddenly finds himself involved in a unlikely series of events: the intrusion of his sister-in-law that wants to seduces him, the interviews that he holds with the confounding director of the mental Institute, Dr Samaniego, the appearance of a dog suggestively called Diana, and the progressive and unavoidable awareness that a strange traffic of souls is taking place around. Based on the novel by Adolfo Bioy Casares.
