Luna Caliente is an adaptation of the novel of the same title by Argentine author Mempo Giardinelli. While the book placed the action in the last military coup in Argentina, Aranda set the story in Spain of the 70s during the process of Burgos, which caused some of the last death sentences in Spain during Francos' regime. The plot centers on a rape that changes the lives of the aggressor and his victim. The film premiered in October 2009 at the Valladolid International Film Festival and will have wide release in 2010.
After Bella recovers from the vampire attack that almost claimed her life, she looks to celebrate her birthday with Edward and his family. However, a minor accident during the festivities results in Bella's blood being shed, a sight that proves too intense for the Cullens, who decide to leave the town of Forks, Washington for Bella and Edward's sake. Initially heartbroken, Bella finds a form of comfort in reckless living, as well as an even-closer friendship with Jacob Black. Danger in different forms awaits.
Sam Bell has a three year contract to work for Lunar Industries. For the contract's entire duration, he is the sole employee based at their lunar station. His primary job responsibility is to harvest and periodically rocket back to Earth supplies of helium-3, the current clean and abundant fuel used on Earth. There is no direct communication link available between the lunar station and Earth, so his only direct real-time interaction is with GERTY, the intelligent computer whose function is to attend to his day to day needs. With such little human contact and all of it indirect, he feels that three years is far too long to be so isolated; he knows he is beginning to hallucinate as the end of his three years approaches.
