Fabulous is the story of a daughter arriving to her parents‘ house in her hometown, trying to escape from the anxious ‘bug’ that stalks her. When she arrives, she is forced to face the biggest mirror in her life: her father. Daughter and father have a lot of pain inside them. They desperately and intimately seek for this feeling to disappear, at least for a little while. For that to take place, they rely on any type of anesthetic that helps them disconnect and embrace a temporary pleasure. However, neither of them want to see it, either in their own selves or in the other’s reflection. The best thing is for things to be FABULOUS, all the time.
For our hero, every day looks the same. Or maybe they are too much alike: the same routines repeated over and over again. One day, a simple board that says “Park” will make everything shake.
