This is one of the "new cinema" movies, marked by the use of experimental filming and a plot exposing social problems. The movie follows a doctor who works with cancer patients, becoming numb and unemotional as a means to cope with the fact that he cannot save his patients. The doctor then falls in love with a woman dying of leukaemia and has a romance with her until her death.
The acting isn't great but considering how this was made during the dictatorship, with very little money, I say it's worth watching for the interesting cinematography and the historical interest.
