[1][2] The film is a joint project by the production group El Pampero Cine and the acting company Piel de Lava, made up of actresses Elisa Carricajo, Valeria Correa, Pilar Gamboa, and Laura Paredes.
La flor is broken into six separate episodes, connected only by an on-screen appearance by Llinás explaining the film's structure.
One follows a couple that has broken up as they reunite to record a song together, and the other is a mystery about a secret society formulating a potion for eternal life using a supposedly extinct scorpion.
After the director disappears, an investigator develops a theory about the actresses after reading Arthur Machen's translation of Casanova's memoirs.
In the United States and Canada, La flor was released on November 1, 2019, alongside Harriet, Terminator: Dark Fate and Motherless Brooklyn.
