Director Statement

Tentación is a short film which was born out of the problem of the very name of the work, temptation. Well, nowadays, we are used to forgetting our strength and letting ourselves be carried away by desire. This short film is created with all the intention of reflecting on our pleasures and desires, and how these can take us to places where we cannot escape.
