The plot of this film revolves around two insomniacs, a hunchback boxer and a voyeuristic teacher, who after meeting one another on a bridge decide to rape a pregnant woman.

Many believe this opportunity was lost because the film was so experimental with its bombardment of confusing dream sequences and "supernatural events" that any salvageable themes or motifs were buried too deep to make any lasting impression on its audience.

He goes on to commend Ruiz’s rapid fire style of filmmaking, at the time this was the 6th film he had made that year, all of which were on a “shoestring” budget to make things even more impressive.

One of his most well known films, Time Regained (1999), acts as a prime example of when his experimental style meshes well with an already established adaptation of a novel, making his unique artistic vision more palatable for the average viewer.

It is a shame that many of his films go unnoticed or ignored for this reason, but at the end of the day, it is the price paid for such an incredibly vast body of work manifested in a single lifetime.
