The Buenos Aires AffairManuel Puig1976

Synopsis

This tongue-in-cheek thriller involves the abduction of a woman, an insidious threat of sexual violation, and an impending murder, and gives a powerful portrait of two mutilated lives -the victim and the criminal who are psychologically dependent on each other: Gladys Hebe D'Onofrio, a 35-year-old sculptor of little achievement, now frightfully alone, tormented by sexual fantasies and perpetually in search of the ideal lover; and Leo Druscovich, an outwardly confident and successful art critic and editor, deeply troubled by a terrible guilt that surfaces in his repeated sexual failures.
