In 'Ungles perfectes', Antònia Vicens immerses us in a Mallorca corrupted by drug trafficking, where two women seek to rebuild their lives. Isabel, marked by love failures and an addicted daughter, longs for the island's past. Carmen, a former drug lord's lover, seeks love, luxury, and pleasures without scruples, while her gay son demands money from Barcelona. The plot thickens with the appearance of an ex-convict who, fleeing from a trafficker, kidnaps one of them, unleashing an unexpected passion. With a dynamic and bold language, Vicens guides us through the underworld of a city full of excesses and secrets, offering an Almodóvarian portrait of the hidden face of the tourist paradise.
