Una Muerte Anunciada/A Death Foretold
Overview
The story begins with a group of people discussing how they had died. Ana, a Spanish writer, starts her narration with "I used to be a man" and recalls a "FridaKahlo's type of accident" from both sides of the relationship. Jing, an Asian girl, calmly pronounces the words "I was killed by him", pointing her boyfriend outside the door. Two independent storylines of the female characters lead to a same theme- how to face the "never have" and the "never will", how to deal with one's own obsession-, a life lesson that everyone has to learn.
