Rotting in the Sun
“A (almost) true mystery.”
ComedyThriller
A filmmaker facing an existential crisis goes on a vacation to a Mexican gay nudist beach, where he meets a social media celebrity who convinces him to collaborate with him on his new TV show. But one disappears and another embarks on a wild journey through Mexico City to find him.
VIBE
A darkly funny, existential dive into self-loathing and social media absurdity. It's a disorienting, satirical trip through class divides and queer identity, set against a uniquely Mexican backdrop. Expect the unexpected.
