Juan escapes Madrid and his incestuous relationship with his sister Ana, taking a job at a mine on the Andalucian coast. His friendship with Rosario, a local shop girl, turns romantic, but Ana reappears, determined to rekindle their affair and insisting Juan is the only man she could ever love. Juan pulls away from Rosario. The mine faces a crisis: high cancer rates in the area are linked to poorly stored radioactive waste. Petersen, a foreign safety engineer, tries to connect with Ana and, though rebuffed, lets her stay in his sea-front bungalow. When Juan comes to demand she leave, he ends up arguing with Petersen. Death, desire, and longing play out.
