199 Recetas para Ser Feliz plot
During a hot summer in Barcelona, a Chilean couple, Tomás and Helena, receive an unexpected visitor. The unannounced guest is Sandra, the girlfriend of Helena's younger brother. Shortly before that, he disappeared without a trace, after he dived from a rock into the water under the eyes of Sandra. Sandra is in no rush and seems to intend to stay for a longer period of time. While the hostess falls ill and Tomás is given the thankless task of selling yet another self-help book for his publisher, young Sandra manages to slowly but surely win over both adults. She soon leads her own life outside the door, but lies about it. At home, in the small apartment, she awakens compassion as much as lust, and what was once a stable relationship slowly but surely becomes disorganized.
