Coup de Grace is a dance film about the demise of a friendship. Jordi Cortes Molina plays a proud aristocrat who has been hurt in the past. His childhood friend, Damian Muñoz, is his fanciful opposite. After a long time, take the two men meet again in a massive building. During an evening and a night they have an exhaustive duel without any weapons.
Coup de Grâce is a cinematic adaptation of the presentation of Ölelés from Molina and Muñoz, based on the novel Glow by Sandor Marai (1942). It is a tale of revenge that despite the passage of time never passes.
