CGiii Comment

Like so many Spanish films within this verbose genre - this is another intensely annoying installment.

The first outing for this writing/directing duo - who are hit and miss film-makers - this being the latter.

An original take on the fag-hag is difficult...because, it's all done before. This film has been done before - only better.

The(ir) Blurb...

In 1990s Spain, the strong friendship between a gay man and his female best friend is tested by his entering into a relationship with another man. The girlfriend, used to getting all the attention from her gay male friend, becomes somewhat jealous of "amor de hombre" (love for another man). This "new" situation changes the lives of all the characters involved.
