Benny & Joon

Marta, who after her breakup, reacts by withdrawing into herself. When she loses her love she loses her appetite, too, but soon enough, she discovers that this has more to do with her own health than the pain of separation. Now, everything changes: the taste of food, the music, the desire, the certainty of the choices that were made.
