Plot

edit

Two friends, Pep and Vicent, live in a wide flat in Valencia. Both Pep, an artist, and Vicent, a tourist guide, meet Lola, an old acquaintance of Pep's, with whom both become infatuated. After Lola has sex with both of them separately, they decide to have a threesome, which generates a conflict among all three and causes Pep and Vicent to fall out.

The movie was panned by critics.[1][2] Critic Mikel Zorrilla stated that it is "a very bad movie in which none of its subplots actually work" and "an overdose of tasteless clichés".[3]
