Plot

In an era of oppressive societal norms, the vibrant and rebellious Mateo finds himself confined within the grim walls of a psychiatric institution in Extramadura. This so-called "sanctuary" is little more than a dank dungeon, a sinister haven for the castoffs of society, under the iron fist of the despotic director Burgos. Among the institution's tormented souls, Lola, a fragile creature, stands out. Broken and scarred, Lola is the victim of lifelong sexual abuse at the hands of paternal figures, which led her to the precipice of sanity. Drawn to her tragic plight, the noble Mateo becomes Lola's beacon of hope in this bleak world. As he gently rekindles the flickering flame of dreams within Lola, their hearts become irrevocably entwined, igniting a fiery passion that propels them towards an audacious challenge to the institution's oppressive walls. This gripping tale of resilience and rebellion paints a profound picture of love flourishing amidst despair, making The Sandman an unforgettable cinematic experience.
