Overview:
This film takes a version of the story of Argentine Eva Peron and translates it to Central Europe. Marina is an ambitious woman, and sleeps her way into power, becoming the mistress and finally the wife of the president of her country. She becomes perceived as saint-like, which is a great boost to her husband's career. In order to pin down her saintly image and ensure her husband's hold on power, she arranges to be martyred.
Description
Marina Pinares, the wife of the president of a South American country, insists on being his vice-presidential running mate in the next election. She's no stranger to assassination to get what she wants, so some suspect she'll kill her own husband after the election to become president. In a series of flashbacks we see her rise to power: a party girl willing to sacrifice a friend's virtue to gain favor; the lover of a soldier she later tortures; the mistress of the military man she soon marries.
