It's a story of a widow, Dona Flor (Carmen Aguirre) whose ghost husband Vadinho (Ty Olsson) comes back to haunt her.
Ty Olsson is nude in most of his scenes (as a ghost should be, I suppose) and Carmen Aguirre becomes flesh incarnate during her wedding night scene and towards the end, where, in a surrealistic twist, she joins her husband in hell.
Olsson did a good job as the dynamic, typically intense and passionate Latino, while Aguirre was the more laid back Dona Flor.
