Juan Carlos Ortuño

A shortfilm by Julian Hernandez

Two men on the ground separate, we lose sight of them, the camera turns on its axis in a desert landscape; we see the dust, the mountains. We listen to a piano, the murmur of male voices, the characters move in and out of the frame while the camera rotates, in one of the already well-known film choreographies of the staging characteristic of the Mexican director.

Gerardo, a 17-year old guy has just finished his relationship with Bruno and starts wandering hopeless through the streets of the city. In his wandering he's tortured by images: each masculine body he sees reminds him of his lover. Gerardo is determined to keep what's left of his dying love. The only comfort he has is a letter that Bruno left him with his boss.

An erotic triangle between two young men and a mature man. The film asks, How can three men endure every trace of an obsessive passion?

To live is to dream and to fight to communicate and ward off loneliness. In this sexually-charged experimental, two men find each other in a time of need.
