Law of desire

Pablo Quintero is a successful gay director. He meets Antonio, a handsome young man obsessed with him. They have a relationship, but Pablo is still in love with his longtime lover, Juan.

In parallel, the dramatic story of Pablo’s sister, Tina, a mediocre actress who once changed her sex to have sex with her stepfather, who eventually left her for another woman, is told. Because of this, she hates all men, and rumors are circulating that she may be a lesbian. In addition, she must take care of her niece Ada, whose mother actually abandoned her.

In a fit of passion for Pablo, Antonio kills Juan. However, police are beginning to suspect Pablo and Tina. In a car accident, Pablo loses his memory, which allows Tina to reveal to him why she became a transsexual. She also reports that she found a lover. It turns out to be Antonio, but Pablo learns about it too late. Antonio takes Tina and Hell hostage to demand an hour alone with Pablo. Stunned, Pablo agrees and after an hour of their intimacy begins to feel tender feelings for him. But Antonio suddenly kills himself.
