Synopsis : 

Sebastian, 17, takes over his uncle’s motel on the desolate tropical coast of Veracruz single-handed. Miranda, 35, a local estate agent, occasionally uses the motel to meet Mario, her lover. Mario is always late for their amorous escapades, and Miranda has to wait for him. During these intervals, Sebastian and Miranda gradually grow closer to one another, even if they know that at the end of the day whatever happens between them can never last.
