Lolita's Club (2007)

AKA:
Canciones de amor en Lolita's Club
Songs of Love of Lolita's Club

Synopsis:
A violent man discovers his mentally challenged brother is his rival for the affections of a beautiful but troubled woman in this drama from filmmaker Vicente Aranda. Raul (Eduardo Noriega) is an angry, loose cannon of a cop who has lost his job after roughing up one too many suspects and receiving death threats from a number of violent and dangerous criminals. With few prospects, Raul heads back to the north of Spain where he grew up and moves in with his father Jose (Hector Colome). One of Raul's few soft spots is for his twin brother Valentin (also played by Eduardo Noriega), who is mentally handicapped, so he becomes deeply concerned when Jose tells him Valentin has been working as a gofer at a local bordello and has fallen in love with one the prostitutes, Milena (Flora Martinez). Raul doesn't want his brother's heart broken by a call girl, so he goes to the brothel to persuade Milena to put an end to their relationship. But Raul finds himself falling for the drug-addicted Milena himself, and he attempts to drive a wedge between her and Valentin in a direct and ugly manner. Canciones de Amor en Lolita's Club (aka Love Songs In Lolita's Club) was adapted from a novel by Juan Marse.
