CGiii Comment
Revolutionary politics - from the gay and straight perspectives - are thrown around...and the ensuing friendship that results therein.
Delicate and deftly done with a rare amount of intelligence for a movie that is labelled gay.
Important.
Trailer...
The(ir) Blurb...
Diego, a cultivated, homosexual and skeptical young man, falls in love with a young heterosexual communist full of prejudices and doctrinal ideas. First come rejection and suspicion, but also fascination. Fresa y chocolate is a coming-of-age story, told through the development of a great friendship which overcomes incomprehension and intolerance.
