The Virgin of The Quarry Lake (La virgen de la Tosquera)

2001, Argentina: A hot and steamy summer, just a few months after the outbreak of violence which led to a profound social and economic crisis in the country.

Natalia, Mariela and Josefina are three, inseparable friends who live on the outskirts of Buenos Aires.

With the help of her grandma, Rita, Natalia decides to call on dark incantations and curses to jinx Diego and Silvia’s blossoming relationship. The spell doesn’t work, but it does lead to a new and unknown sensation inside Natalia. An unexplored, mysterious feeling that will lead her towards self-empowerment, sexual awakening and a drastic denouement.
