A young Catholic girl takes viewers through a changing Spanish political and social landscape as she develops from her confirmation day to adulthood. Her first experience with the real Spain comes when her Jewish godfathers cannot come to her confirmation. One of the godfathers, using a ring, poses an early challenge to her innocence that puts her in danger. He later returns, indirectly introducing her to a new boyfriend. If he is one of the symbols for Jewish life under Franco, or for a Judeo-Christian interaction, that interaction is complex. The young woman encounters different lovers as she grows into adulthood, but at the same time she is burdened with financially supporting her father and his own rather decadent lifestyle. Again, this difference in generations could be understood as a difference between the "new" and "old" Spain; it is up to the viewers to interpret the story elements as they decide.

The Count of Maravillas receives an unusual proposal from a masked woman: to kidnap the valido of King Carlos IV.

Based on the book by Lewis Carroll and set in Buenos Aires and the countryside, this hilarious adaptation of the story of a girl who sees her world disrupted by passing through the mirror holds the date they are made, some political connotations, primarily through the soundtracks by Charly Garcia and Raul Porchetto.
