Adan & Esteban 2022
Adán y Esteban (original title)
19m | Short | Release date: April 20, 2022 (Argentina)
Storyline:
A night in which a young man helps another revive from a party blowout. A night in which tenderness and desire, apparently absent, slip through the cracks and transform distances. Two former classmates from high school on a night that constantly threaten to end up ignoring the skin that pulls to continue in contact. Pisces or Capricorn, denial or exhibition, rationality or faith. Two bodies that meet in the middle and a sunrise that sheds light on fears and evaporates them with the sun’s rays.
User review:
The film is marketed as Adán y Esteban but the two characters are called Nacho and Tomi. Not really sure why this is so unless it’s a play on the English “Adam and Steve” that’s used for gay couples in the Anglosphere, Esteban being Stephen in Spanish.
I watched this as part of the Male Gaze Skin on Skin compilation and it’s the third one out of the four shorts in terms of success and appeal for me.
I didn’t find the conversation between the two lads in the morning particularly convincing and had difficulty believing that Nacho could have been so seductive after having become so drunk that he had had to have a shower, presumably to wash sick off himself.
This wasn’t a bad film, just not particularly inspiring. I’m not sorry I watched it but it’s just five stars.
