Coníferas

Synopsis of Coníferas

Joel lives in Walden, an idyllic community in the heart of nature whose members reject new technologies and advocate for a life faithful to old customs. With the intention of getting closer to Alina, a newcomer who has him fascinated, he begins to send letters to himself at the young woman's house. Everything goes smoothly until Alina hands him one that he did not write and whose content suggests that the anonymous sender knows him better than anyone. As the relationship with Alina progresses, misunderstandings and threats from this epistolary saboteur determined to separate the couple ensue. Slowly, without realizing it, Joel becomes trapped in a disturbing labyrinth of mirrors where his reflection seems to take on a life of its own while he struggles to regain control of his destiny. Marta Carnicero masterfully weaves the threads of this moving story about identity, love, and the anguish of losing both.
