During a hot summer day, an author (by Jens Harzer) muses alone in his study, while outside his characters engage in conversations he is creating. A woman (by Sophie Semin), highly analytical and honest, traces the story of her many loves, from her first sexual experience to her later disillusionments, as her male companion (by Reda Kateb) interjects and asks probing questions. Set within a stunning landscape, The Beautiful Days of Aranjuez unveils a story about moral conflicts and sex spirals in distanced familiar and loving relationships.
