THE MAIN CHARACTER OF THE FILM HIJACKED THIS SYNOPSIS-

I am Ancizar Lopez, Colombiano. I live in Madrid and I am in love with two women: Virginia, my wife, and Lucia, my lover. I met Virginia in Barranquilla, but my mother- in-law threatened to kill me. We had to split. Of course, I came back for her when I made my first Euros and married her. Later, I met Lucia, a fascinating, little Spanish girl. I got involved with her and decided to keep them both. When I began thinking about retiring, I began to think about breaking up with Lucia. To get back at me, she told Virginia everything. Virginia escaped to Colombia, with all my dough and gave some to Lucia who disappeared, in Madrid. Lucia was my mistress, she could betray me. Not Virginia, she was my wife. She had no right to betray me. I had her killed.
