In the Patagonia of 1960, an Argentinean family travel the long road to the Nahuel Huapi Lake where they intend to open a lodging house. En route they meet Helmut Gregor, a German doctor. He is affable, affluent and well-mannered, and becomes their first paying guest. He is fascinated by their daughter Lilith, a twelve-year-old with a body too small for her age. She reawakens his interest in achieving physical perfection. Slowly, the family begin to question exactly who this man might be and why there are so many people within the local German community willing to protect and serve him. An intriguing, atmospheric tale based on director Lucía Puenzo’s own novel. GFF14
