A sexual fantasy story of a middle-class young woman with a shadow of childhood.
From a modern point of view, this film is estimated to be the size of a PG-13 at most in terms of actual screen presentation, but the imagination space outside the screen has been magnified several times. The more interesting point is that Buñuel puts the audience in a more subjective, rather than a bystander, perspective to enter the world of young women. There are no hints and signs for the transition between dreams and reality, directly presenting what the heroine has seen and heard. At the same time, the process of sexuality is left blank. The whole film becomes an experience with the heroine's shell. A true and illusory daydream.
