Two elderly people live in a large house, following a dull and predictable routine. They are stalked by another elderly man—tall, dressed in a black coat, and with a ghostly presence—who eventually takes up residence in one of the rooms of the house. Based on Julio Cortázar’s short story of the same name, *Casa tomada* was one of the most important short films produced within the film department of the National University of La Plata between the 1960s and the early 1970s.
