In the vibrant, sun-drenched port city of Valparaiso, a dancer named Ema, portrayed by Mariana Di Girolamo, makes a shocking decision that shatters her life. After she and her choreographer husband Gaston, played by Gael Garcia Bernal, return their adopted son to the state, their marriage fractures under the weight of guilt and regret. Ema, a force of primal energy and impulsive desire, embarks on a radical and hedonistic quest for personal reinvention, using her art and her body to reclaim a sense of control. As she weaves a complex web involving her ex-husband, a firefighter named Anibal Santiago Cabrera, and the city itself, her motivations become as fluid and mesmerizing as her reggaeton dance moves. Directed by Pablo Larrain, this provocative drama pulses with a hypnotic, neon-soaked atmosphere, exploring the volatile terrain of motherhood, art, and the burning need to rewrite one's own destiny from the ashes of a profound loss.
