It's Christmas Eve, 1986, and Borja is a precocious teenager with a passion for film. As his family comes together to celebrate the holiday, the combined forces of the suffocating Chilean heat, free-flowing drinks, and repressed desire contribute to the eruption of long-held secrets. Both an enticing family melodrama and an explicit erotic thriller, this is a story about the ways that passion and desire control our lives - from pop-culture tastes to sexual fantasies.

VIBE

A simmering, humid tension builds as repressed desires threaten to boil over during a stifling Christmas Eve. This film feels like a slow-burn erotic thriller wrapped in a family drama, exploring the explosive consequences of hidden passions.
