It presents a series of three different stories which end will be affected by the decisions that Lola takes so to save her boyfriend. The film makes me thing about ¿How the choices, according to time, we make can affect our destiny? Therefore the time will affect the choices we make, changing our destiny.

First, the dog will mark how the story will develop. Depending on the actions the dog has, Lola will gain or lose time. The changes and actions of the dog will affect directly Lola’s experiences. So these actions will impact in a way all the people surrounding Lola.

Also, we can see that every single event can changes the destiny upon other’s lives. On the first story, Lola is killed. On the second her boyfriend, Manni, dies.
