SYNOPSIS

A man is met one morning with his lover’s sudden immobility. As he explores both cruel and gentle ways of reviving her, questions arise about her complicity in this role - whether their mutual cruelty is an act of punishment or self-preservation. Mariposa Traicionera examines the concurrent deterioration and reanimation of a dying relationship, exploring victimhood and violence within the delicate, cyclical dynamic of this real-life couple.
