Morgan Freeman being out of the acting limelight, finds himself looking into a sleeper role of a store manager to get things back on track. The "production" company drops him off / abandons him at a seedy joint at the edge of town. Here he runs into Scarlet (Paz Vega), a feisty grocery store worker, who takes pity on him and agrees to give him a ride. Freeman find himself drawn towards the cashier who is also trying to get her life back on track. A strange friendship ensues and most of the film is about the easy bond that forms between the two.

Freeman has taken a page out of Taste of Cherry. His character is curious almost to the point of annoyance. But the no BS presence of Paz Vega cancels things out leaving the viewer in a better frame of mind to appreciate the film.

PS: Paz Vega is HOT!!!

Sex and Lucia

Sometimes when you break up one feels like an island floating on the ocean. Lucia (Paz Vega) finds herself on such an island. Strangely she finds that she is not alone. A cleverly intertwined story with much erotica and a hint of magic realism.
