CONTENT WARNING:
Introverted Juan, manager of a mannequin factory, lives alone with his eighteen-year-old gay son, Pablo. Whilst Pablo blithely studies dance, Juan is hoping that, after twenty-five years at the firm, his boss will consider him for a partnership. When Pablo is badly wounded in a brutal homophobic attack which sees him hospitalised, his father realises just how far they have become estranged. A lack of witnesses and expensive medical bills force Juan to leave the quiet stability of his life for good and reposition himself in a world where there is discrimination. Time and again his efforts come to nought, until one night on the streets of Santiago he makes up his own rules in order to save his son.
This film is presented in Spanish with English subtitles.
After his teenage gay son starts secretly cross-dressing and suffers a violent attack, JUAN, a withdrawn manager at a mannequin factory struggles between paying his son's exorbitant medical bills and his last attempt at becoming partners with his boss. As he runs into dead-ends and unexpected betrayals, he'll discover the world he knew was waiting to be violent with him too. Juan has made too many mistakes, but his son can still be saved.
