Ferozz Molina's history has focused on a dysfunctional family living in isolation of the Cuban countryside. A young, attractive widow is protected from her vicious mother-in-law, by a male relative who practices Satanism, and lusts after the old woman's sexy adolescent granddaughter. Depravity and insanity make this family break taboos of society, regardless of the consequences.

Director Jorge Molina is a Cuban director as well as a performer who has appeared in more than 80 feature length and short films. He made quite a name for himself right out of the gate when his film school thesis, Molina's Culpa, which won a Coral award while simultaneously invoking the ire of the Catholic Church for it's anti-religious content. Molina's filmmaking is known for low budgets, extreme violence and sexuality and for taking on themes that most folks wouldn't touch with a ten foot pole. Molina also teaches directing in Havana.
