FRAIL BLOOD

Love, power, a country's deepest wound

Robert, a recently divorced journalist from Los Angeles, arrives in Buenos Aires seeking to escape his past. There he meets Gabriela — a woman as alluring as she is enigmatic. Their fierce passion consumes them both, but Gabriela's family harbors a dark and elusive past that could separate the lovers. Entangled in a legacy of the military regime's most brutal days, they guard secrets that even she does not know. ​As threats against him grow, Robert faces an agonizing choice: to escape the country or risk everything for Gabriela. 

Frail Blood is a compelling tale of passion, betrayal and resilience, set in a world where the past refuses to stay buried and even love must reckon with the weight of history.
