六个段落，四位女主角共同演出B级僵尸Cult片，以音乐人为主角的通俗剧、谍报动作、科幻恐怖、甚至默片等难以归类的片型，够通俗易懂，也够唯美浪漫，成为阿根廷影史上最长的电影。导演马里亚诺·利纳斯怀抱疯狂野心，耗费十七年，以十四小时颂扬对电影的热爱与对女性的讴歌。坚持的惊人 片长阐述电影永不结束，随著不同年代的拍摄器材与手法，也标志了四名女演员在现实与虚幻中流逝的时光。女人花们生长绽放，所有的故事都不要结局，在情绪最顶点骤停，吊人胃口到超出极限，却又让悬念回荡在你的大脑，而不得不以观影当下为基础，重新思考当代电影“说故事”的形式与本质。

When a young woman (Laura Paredes) wins a radio contest, her prize is four days in a hotel in Ostende, a seaside town by the Atlantic coast in the province of Buenos Aires. Only it's not high season, so the beach proves blustery, the hotel is pretty much empty and she doesn't have much to do while she waits for her boyfriend to join her. So she listens to the stories of a friendly local waiter and watches the comings and goings of an older man and the two women who appear to be with him. From El Pampero Cine, the company responsible for Mariano Llinás' Extraordinary Stories and Alejo Moguillansky's Castro (LFF 2009) comes a playful study of voyeurism and the power of storytelling inflected through a feminist sensibility. Laura Paredes gives an assured performance as the outsider whose imagination goes into overdrive when faced with the reality of the sleepy spa resort. Laura Citarella may have described Ostende as a very small feature, but the mischievous nods to Hitchcock and Rohmer and the film's marked focus on ways of seeing actually render this a visually arresting and highly individual debut.
