La dona incompleta (2001)

The world around Joan, the main character, is about to collapse: he has no money or home, he has just separated, his daughter despises him… All he has left is his ability to fabricate, to lie. The secretary, the antagonist of the story, is an ambitious girl, a winner without scruples with a great future ahead. But the secretary only has one arm, and she is convinced that this disability is what stops her going as far as she would like. The lives of these two characters cross when the secretary decides to have an orthopaedic arm implanted. But the arm suddenly starts to make movements she cannot control.
