Why we chose it

A young man who has everything loses his face in a car crash, and from then on he can no longer tell his own life from a dream. When it was remade in America a few years later as “Vanilla Sky”, Penélope Cruz stepped back into the very same role.

Synopsis

César is rich, handsome and used to women in Madrid taking an interest in him without his lifting a finger. At his own birthday party he meets Sofía, his best friend’s girlfriend, and for the first time he truly falls in love. An accident is about to change everything.
