- Summary:
- "Los Esterházy, una pareja excéntrica sin un pasado claro, llegan a un pueblo de la costa argentina y comienzan a regentar un antiguo hotel. Estos dos seres (y sus dos hijos, una niña y un niño más inquietantes y enigmáticos que ellos) producen el efecto de una partícula enfermiza que se introduce en las grietas de una sociedad pequeña y arrasa con su dinámica cotidiana, aparentemente calma. La pareja resulta ser un amplificador de los prejuicios, los deseos ocultos, las supersticiones, los temores y la violencia larvada en muchos de los habitantes del pueblo."-- Provided by publisher.
- "The Esterházys, an eccentric couple with an unclear past, arrive in a coastal town in Argentina and take over the management of an old hotel. These two individuals (along with their two children--a girl and a boy even more unsettling and enigmatic than their parents) create the effect of a toxic speck infiltrating the cracks of a small community and disrupting its seemingly calm daily dynamics. The couple acts as an amplifier for the prejudices, hidden desires, superstitions, fears, and latent violence within many of the town's inhabitants."-- Provided by publisher.
