Synopsis:

Recently released from a mental institution, Ricky (Banderas) sets in motion his grand plan. Hunting down the porn star with whom he once had sex, Ricky tries to convince her to be his wife. However, when she's somewhat reluctant to say the least to take up his offer of marriage, he vows to tie her down to endear himself to her...

Ricky is released from a mental hospital, and knows exactly what he wants to do. He hunts down Marina, a porn film star he once had sex with, and tries to convince here to be his wife. She is a bit reluctant, so he ties her up... Will this approach endear him to her ?

Just released from residential psychiatry, where he became an all-round handyman, gentle orphan Ricky pursues his sole pathological obsession. Penniless, hence without a chance to court her, he kidnaps porn actress Marina from the set of crippled director Maximo's last movie. At first she hates her abductor. Once she realizes he risks and bares everything for her, she gets feeling for him to. But won't she still escape and return to her family and career?
