My Last Round
Drama
2
A diet with too much sugary American rom-coms is not healthy for any gay film-watcher. So add diversity with this searing non-stereotypical Chilean love story. Set in a small southern village in Chile, two men are the focus of the drama - a young sad-eyed Hugo, directionless after just burying his mother and the gruff, middle-aged Octavio, a barber and amateur boxer, who fights despite being epileptic. The two, after long harboring attraction for each other, break taboos and become lovers. When Octavio is forced to retire from boxing, the two decide to head to Santiago for a better life. But when Hugo becomes uncomfortable close with a female co-worker and Octavio becomes frustrated by not boxing, something has to give. A truly unusual, moving and tender story about two very different working class men determined to love despite the obstacles.
Bonsái
Julio is a struggling young writer who has hit a wall. Unemployed and involved in a half-hearted relationship with his neighbor, things are finally starting to look up when he gets an interview with a renowned author to transcribe his latest work. Things don't go as planned and Julio doesn't get the job. Instead of admitting the truth to his girlfriend, he pretends to be transcribing the novel when he's actually writing his own story. Searching for inspiration and a plot, Julio revisits a romance he had eight years ago when studying literature. As Julio's novel progresses, so does his fondness for the past and of the love he let slip away. Based on the internationally acclaimed novella, BONSÁI is a subtly affecting and comic examination of the lies we tell ourselves in order to get by.
