The third screenplay by writer Belén Gopegui for director Gerardo Herrero is a sensitive feminist plea that denounces the invisibility to which heteropatriarchal society condemns women over 40 years old. The protagonist of this dramatic comedy feels ignored by those around her, and her husband has left her for a younger woman. Determined to reverse the situation, she sets out to “conquer” a male colleague from work, with the support of a special trainer and the advice of an uninhibited actress.

Luisa starts feeling it. When she goes out with people, she notices that people speak through her, they do not listen what she says, do not look at her. Specially men. Now, after a whole life fighting to be valued as a person and not only as woman, she finally decides to hire a personal trainer since she wants to attract Jorge, a same age colleague in the mobile phone company where they both work. His indifference disconcerts her. But she’s always been able to face new situations: Luisa has a plan.

Have you ever felt that you were invisible?
