The Passion According to Carmen

The story

Journalist Carmen's life appears – at least on the surface – happy and stable. She has close friends, a comfortable life and is married to Nico, with whom they have a 20-year-old daughter. But Carmen is bereft over her grandmother and best friend, Mar, who has died. On her 50th birthday, Carmen follows her estranged daughter to a feminist protest, where a rock to the head sparks an unexpected awakening. Rescued by a group of women and taken to Santiago’s Museum of Pre-Columbian Art, she meets Lina and is drawn into a sensual, liberated world, triggering a profound transformation.
