One question.. MAJOR SPOILER...


Was Robert gay? I mean Vera is women(atleast looks like), but originally it's a man. And that man indirectly killed his daughter. And yet he like having sex with he/she or whatever that thing is. I don't know, it's very suspicious...

What are you folks think?

By that point in the stort, his mind is too far gone that normal ideas of relationships and morality are gone. He punishes Vicente by inadertantly/eventually turning him into a carbon copy of his wife, albeit with practically impenetrable skin. Once he's finished, he doesn't see Vicente anymore, only Vera/Gal. And she is his second attempt to save his wife and crumbled sanity.
