Plot

Begoña is a thirty something consultant who has rebelled against her upper middle class background and has overdone it with sex ever since her youth. On recommendation of her psychoanalyst she keeps a video diary of her encounters using a palm-sized video gadget called "The Owl".

Sinekatalog’s take

A woman records her many sexual encounters on a video gadget at her analyst's suggestion. The premise promises insight into voyeurism, but the result is uneven and often superficial. Only for those drawn to provocative European erotica.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
