Ferpect Crime
Rafael (Guillermo Toledo) is a women's clothing clerk at a large Madrid department store, Yeyo's. His department is filled with beautiful, comely young women whom Rafael routinely seduces. Rafael would rather die than live a mediocre life. He knows the house he wants, the car he wants. Rafael believes in making his own luck and prefers taking action over sitting around and waiting for things to change. Even at his department, everything is perfect. The light, the music, the colors and the aroma. Rafael hates the idea of marriage as he believes that life is over as soon as a man gets a mortgage and has kids. Rafael's department has Alonso (Fernando Tejero), a kiss ass, Roxanne (Kira Miro) a woman with a voracious sex drive, Jaime (Javier Gutierrez) who had to quit law school to marry his pregnant girlfriend, and Susanna, married with 2 kids and converted into a sex bomb after years of neglect by her husband. When Rafael vies for a management position with Don Antonio (Luis Varela), a men's clothing clerk whom Rafael despises. Don has been at the store for over 20 years. An impending much-sought-after promotion at Yeyo's shopping mall in Madrid has created quite a stir, as a new floor supervisor needs to be chosen between Don Antonio, the helpful, experienced, yet, stern and gloomy head of the men's department and Rafael, the seductive, highly skilled salesman and head of the women's department. Without a doubt, competition is hard when there's only room for one. The floor supervisor position comes with stock in the company, commission on everything sold and with time, the chance to join the Board of Directors. The previous floor supervisor, Mr Emilio died to leukemia last Christmas. The winner will be the one who posts the highest monthly sales figures. Don is ahead by 95,000 Euros to Rafael's 90,000. Rafael has 8 hours to bridge the gap. To beat Don, Rafael sells an expensive mink coat to a wealthy lady. The coat itself is 12,000 euros. A fluke causes Don Antonio to win the promotion as the 12,000 euro check bounced. The suave and sophisticated Rafael loses out to his inelegant arch nemesis, he finds himself in a very tight spot when during an argument (Don asks Rafael to move the mannequins to the basement (something that is done by interns) and moves him to the Big and Tall department) Don Antonio fires Rafael (when he insults the customer when she comes in to return the mink coat) and a fight ensues in which Rafael accidentally kills Don Antonio. The scuffle took place in the changing rooms in the middle of the working day. Rafael manages to hide the body. After the end of the workday, Rafael sneaks the body to the basement, where he burns it inside the incinerator used to burn discarded mannequins. But the body is too big, and Rafael goes to get a knife to chop it into smaller pieces. He returns to find the body missing. Lourdes (Monica Cervera), an ugly and unassuming clerk at the store, had witnessed the outcome of the fight. She reveals herself to Rafael and says that she hid Don's body in a place where it cannot be found. Lourdes complains that Rafael always ignored her at work. Rafael sweet talks her and assures her that they are now together. She helps Rafael incinerate the body, and provides an alibi for the police and Inspector Campoy (Enrique Villen). Rafael wins his coveted promotion, but at a terrible cost: Lourdes blackmails Rafael into an unwanted relationship. Lourdes forces him to make love to her in the same way that he seduced his other lovers inside the store. He is forced to fire his many former lovers, and Lourdes hires her own friends as salesgirls in the vacated positions. With the new, ordinary, salesgirls, sales went up by 20%.
