SYNOPSIS
*Locuras Paralelas* is a story that weaves together, in a dreamlike, surreal yet plausible way, the lives of two couples: Guillermo and Luz, on the one hand; Leticia and Gabriel, on the other.
By a twist of fate, Gabriel and Luz cross the boundary into the unreal and find themselves in an apartment that seems to belong to both of them, but where the kitchen is his and the bathroom is hers. In this impossible space, encounters as irrational as they are inevitable begin to unfold, in a parallel universe where the rules are no longer the same. Bewildered, defiant, and increasingly curious, Luz and Gabriel try to rebel against this strange situation, but in the process they begin to get to know each other…
A clever, provocative, and surprising comedy that culminates in a completely unexpected ending.
