This adaptation of Goethe’s The Sorrows of Young Werther places the story in a cold, distant Spain. Werther (Eusebio Poncela) works as a tutor for the son of a separated couple; the boy’s mother, a surgeon, defies social expectations. As she and Werther grow closer, his affection deepens beyond what she perceives on the surface.
