El fantasma de mi mujer

Álvaro wakes to a strange noise in the kitchen and finds the ghost of his ex-wife Carla standing by the refrigerator. The catch is that Carla is very much alive — she simply decided to visit her former husband in an immaterial form after an experimental meditation course. Now Álvaro must share his bachelor apartment with a translucent yet extremely chatty version of the woman he once divorced. This 2026 comedy turns a mundane tale of unresolved feelings into an absurd farce about how hard it is to leave the past behind, even when it becomes semi-transparent. Director Miguel Ángel Lobato plays with the ghost story genre, turning it inside out: here the specter doesn't haunt but annoys, reminisces, and offers unsolicited fashion advice. The film balances light satire of modern spiritual practices with a touching story about bonds that not even divorce papers can fully sever.
