The director of ‘Bromance’ returns with the poignant Argentine comedy-drama ‘Blue Lights’

An emotionally-charged ensemble piece from Lucas Santa Ana, the Argentine director behind Bromance and Memories of a Teenager, Blue Lights takes place almost entirely during one unexpectedly heated dinner party.

When friends and family members gather to celebrate the 70th birthday of Alejandro (Ernesto Larrese), they’re not expecting an unforgettable night that will redefine their relationships.

As tensions simmer and truths emerge, Blue Lights explores the intricacies of love, loss, friendship and the evolving dynamics of gay and lesbian relationships in an ever-changing world.

With stellar performances from a diverse ensemble cast and a poignantly insightful narrative, this razor sharp dramedy offers a nuanced reflection on life’s complexities and the ties that bind us.

Take a trip back to 1996 with the sexy surfside drama ‘Bromance’

From writer-director Lucas Santa Ana and co-writer Diego Mina, sexy surfside drama Bromance follows four close friends who go on a camping trip together in a remote part of Argentina… and find some of their barely-concealed sexual tensions quickly bubbling to the surface.

Once in virtual seclusion by the beach, Julietta (Luana Pascual), the only girl of the group, quickly recognizes that the boys (Javier De Pietro, Agustín Pardella and Marcos Ribas) seem to have a closer relationship than what she would consider ‘normal’ (it’s only ’96, after all). The line between friendship and love fade further for two of the boys in particular as their desire becomes too much to bear.

When what started as a simple getaway quickly becomes tinged with sex, romance and conflict, everyone is forced to confront who they really are for the very first time.

Starring some very hot lead actors – including De Pietro, the scrumptious star of Marco Berger’s films Absent, Young Hunter and Sexual Tension: Volatile – Bromance uses a distinct time period and a clever found-footage aesthetic to deliver a thoughtful and supremely sexy meditation on young, burgeoning gay love.
