Anabella Bacigalupo

After the death of his mother, Emilio is tasked with taking over her rural dovecote for carrier pigeons while navigating a weighty cocktail of new, all-consuming sensations - including grief, lust and romantic longing. Surreal and packed with offbeat humor, this fascinating debut feature from director Sergio de León is one of the most vivid and original queer coming-of-age films in recent memory.

Streetwise hustler Antonio wanders Buenos Aires in search of money and sex, taking lovers to bed and stealing from them as they sleep. Only his tempestuous mother provides the force that may one day push him to seek out a brand-new life. 'The Pleasure is Mine' is a searing, slow-motion portrait of hedonism and discovery, overflowing with characters who luxuriously sink into their authentic selves.
