| SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
Charismatic professor DAVID KEPESH (Ben Kingsley) glories
in the pursuit of adventurous female students but never lets
any woman get too close. When gorgeous CONSUELA CASTILLO (Penélope
Cruz) enters his classroom, however, his protective veneer
dissolves. Her raven-haired beauty both captivates and unsettles
him.
Even if Kepesh declares her body a perfect work of art, Consuela
is more than an object of desire. She has a strong sense of
herself and an emotional intensity that challenges his preconceptions.
Kepesh’s need for Consuela becomes an obsession, but
ultimately his jealous fantasies of betrayal drive her away.
Shattered, Kepesh faces up to the ravages of time, immersing
himself in work and confronting the loss of old friends. Then,
two years later, Consuela comes back into his life—with
an urgent, desperate request that will change everything.
