A successful university professor and a wealthy married woman are engaged in an affair. On their way back from a tryst, they hit a cyclist. He is alive when they leave him, but reports of his subsequent death threaten to tear their lives apart. Juan Antonio Bardem’s drama is a scathing portrait of the establishment and its desire to maintain power and wealth at any cost.
