The Film All-Nighter

Maurilio and Fidela are a couple who work at a funeral parlour in a small Cuban town. For 17 years they have prepared bodies for burial, and Maurilio has driven them to the cemetery. María Salafranca guides us through their place of work, which the couple recreate with droll humour. They live their lives in the same space where they work, and where death and love collide every day.
