Sandra Mozarowsky was one of the actresses of the so-called exposure cinema. According to the official statement, her life quickly ended when she fell from the terrace of her family’s house while she was five months pregnant. He was 18 years old. All kinds of rumors affected her, from the moment she had an affair with the honorary king to the fact that she changed her job as an actress to a ‘hostess girl’ in a nightclub.. The film by Borja de la Vega is a kind of fantasy-reality reconstruction of the last day and night of his life.
The film explores what might be true and legendary in his case., if his death was truly the result of an accident, suicide or murder, but everything was allowed to remain up in the air, unknowns were uncovered without seeking answers, because they did not exist then and will not exist today. It works better in the first episode with the conversations he has with his parents before they leave for the weekend, the re-enactment of the interview he gave to ‘Semana’ magazine, or the phone harassment he suffers. The last part takes the form of a hallucinatory nightmare and doesn’t work the same. Actress Claudia Traisac is really good at expressing the character’s depression and growing deterioration in self-confidence, as well as her conversation with her friend Inma, who must be none other than Inma de Santis.
