Arenillas) after almost blinding
her older sister (Antonella Aqui-
stapache) in a bout of malicious
horseplay. Rosina runs down the
beach that outlines her small
village on Uruguay’s coast and
seeks refuge in the surf, only to
retreat onto land when she spots
a large dorsal fin in the waters.
Rosina finds herself a girl who
cried “Shark!” as her father dis-
misses her claims as more teen-
age petulance. To knock some
sense into his troublesome
daughter, he ropes Rosina into
his gardening crew, where she
falls for co-worker Joselo (Fed-
erico Morosini), the sort of dop-
ey older boy young girls are so
often naively drawn to. Joselo in-
vites Rosina to the garage home
he shares with his work buddies,
but Rosina’s hopes for a roman-
tic encounter are dashed when
Joselo simply pleases himself
beside her. Refusing to join in,
Rosina is dismissed by Joselo,
who ignores her at work.
