One Night Alone

Celina and Alejo have gone through a rough patch for a while, almost as long as they have had their son Camilo, who is 4 years old. Alejo’s mother gives them a voucher for a hotel night and offers to look after the kid for the night. The proposal feels weird to them, but they do their best to live the experience enthusiastically. Cecilia uses her best perfume and Alejo wears skinny pants, which will cause some trouble. Finally the night does not turn out to be what they expected.
