The Empty Hours

On the desolated coast of Veracruz, 17-year-old Sebastián starts to run his uncle’s rent-by-the-hour motel on his own. There he meets Miranda, a regular client, who goes to the motel to meet a lover who always keeps her waiting. During those spare moments, Sebastián and Miranda get to know each other and a brief seduction game starts between them.
