Caricias Ventura Pons [videorecording]=

Based on the play of the same name by Sergi Belbel.

From case cover:
La ciudad inquieta, de noche. Asistimos a una ronda (discontinua) de once historias de personajes con diferentes relaciones: parejas, madre-hija, compañeros, hermanos, jóvenes-viejos, padre-hijo, amantes, padre-hija, madre-hijo..., que no consiguen acariciarse (comunicarse, amarse). Época actual, final de milenio.
Situaciones desnudas donde el ser humano hace aflorar sus emociones más intensas y también sus más bajos instintos. Desamor, pero también amor. Muchas posibles formas de amor. Pese a la cercanía, las personas pueden ser del todo desconocidas. Hablan sin escuchar, escuchan sin oir y actuan sin mirar. Pero también puede haber una chispa de esperanza, de comunicación, unas caricias.

From IMDb:
Eleven episodes portray different encounters in a large city during the course of a single night towards the end of the millennium. A young man wants to stop living together with a young woman because he believes that they no longer have anything to say to each other. The young woman goes to visit her mother, an elderly woman. She lives with an old lesbian who meets her homeless brother. She asks him to forgive her for having seduced his wife all those years ago, but the brother pretends not to know who she is. A young boy attacks the homeless man. At first he tells him about his wild nights, then he knocks him to the ground and steals the old man's ring. At home the young boy has a bath and asks his father to join him in the tub. The boy's father has a girlfriend, a young woman. He intends to end their relationship... Eleven interlocking scenes that involve two characters, one of whom carries forward into the next scene, until the chain comes full circle.
