Flower of Seduction

Malena is an attractive woman, psychoanalyst of profession and tango dancer by devotion. One night she kills accidentally a man and decides to hide her crime. Days after, she sees in the news the man’s wife and little daughter: he was a policeman. In her plan, Malena meets Carlos, work companion of the dead policeman who is investigating his disappearance. He is of Vasc origin and they call him “the Sabina,” because sometimes he answers using phrases of the songs of the artist. A strange fascination captures Malena with “the Sabina,” the man who has to discover the crime she committed and take her to prison. Since the beginning, the relationship between them is passionate and transgressor, without moral limits.

Directed by Antonio González-Vigil, Flower of Seduction leans on a strong ensemble — Eduardo Blanco, María Marull, Dalia Elnecavé — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about thriller titles of 2009.
