Sinopsis:

According to Genesis, after having eaten from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, Adam and Eve were expelled from the Garden of Eden to keep them from partaking of the other forbidden tree: the Tree of Life. However, in this film we find that before leaving they tasted that tree too, became immortal, and ended up in Mexico City, sick and tired of life.

In this his first feature film, Iván Ávila Dueñas shares his own unique vision of modern-day relationships, with especial emphasis on couples living in Mexico City, told through a personal style that borders on the experimental.
