Synopsis – What to Expect from “The Burning Plain”
The Burning Plain is a 2008 American drama film directed by Guillermo Arriaga and starring Charlize Theron, Jennifer Lawrence, Kim Basinger, Joaquim de Almeida, and John Corbett.
The Burning Plain follows the lives of several characters in different time periods, all of whom are connected by a tragic event. The story begins in the present day with Mariana (Charlize Theron), a woman whose life is marked by guilt and loneliness. The film then jumps back in time to when Mariana was a young girl (Jennifer Lawrence) living in a small desert town with her mother, Sylvia (Kim Basinger). Despite her mother’s attempts to keep her away from the outside world, Mariana befriends a young boy named Santiago (J.D. Pardo) who lives in a nearby trailer park.
The two quickly become close and Mariana finds in Santiago a much-needed companion. However, their friendship is threatened when Mariana discovers that Santiago’s mother is having an affair with her own father. Mariana is devastated and decides to run away with Santiago, but they are soon caught by Sylvia and Mariana’s father. A violent confrontation ensues, resulting in the death of Sylvia and Mariana’s father.
Mariana and Santiago are separated and Mariana is sent to live with her aunt in a nearby city. Years later, Mariana is still haunted
