Sinopsis
(All Movie Guide)
In this cheerfully surrealistic romance, a poet
named Oliverio lives by his wits in Buenos Aires, winning dollars by reciting
his poems to passing motorists who stop at red lights or by occasionally
trading a poem for a steak from a sympathetic restaurateur. His friends
include an eccentric Canadian sculptor and Death himself, who often encourages
him to get a regular job. When he grows tired of the women he is sleeping
with, his bed becomes a doorway to elsewhere, and they simply disappear. This
all changes somewhat when he falls in love with a high-class (and evidently
very gifted) hooker. Their lovemaking sessions literally result in the couple
levitating. Increasingly obsessed with meeting her fee, the free-spirited poet
gets a job in advertising. At one point, their sexual encounter literally
sends them flying over the city.
