Maror (1995)

In the heart of winter, some people meet up to spend a few days in a solitary seaside summer house: Isabel, a famous writer of popular novels; her husband, Pau; Esperança, their daughter; and Pilar, Isabel’s sister. The news that the protagonist wants to drop out of her career as a writer of best-sellers (which could jeopardise the family’s financial stability) and take up the path of transcendental literature, will trigger a series of encounters and clashes (involving a fifth character, doctor Jaume Robert) which will conclude, in line with the rules of the comedy of intrigue, with an unexpected death.
