OPEN YOUR EYES (1997 - R)
(Abre los ojos)

In a remarkable tale of courage, self-discovery, and revelation, "Abre los ojos" is about the wealthy Cesar, whose carefree life of wealth and fame has cast a flippant aura over his personality.  Recklessly engaging in a precarious affair with the seductive Nuria, Cesar decides he wants more from life than a casual fling when the mesmerizing Sofia walks into his life.  But tragedy strikes, forcing Cesar to cope with a life where his face is now utterly destroyed; his chance for love possibly gone; and his conscience doubting him all the way.  "Abre los ojos" is the original and remarkable tale that served as a template for America's blockbuster adaptation, "Vanilla Sky".
