The two main actors, Diego Luna and Gael Garcia Bernal, 23 and 24 years old when the film was made, are doing a stunning performance in this brilliant Mexican road movie from 2002. This is a well done, good acted drama that I can recommend. It was nominated for Oscar in 2003. Another Mexican film is Sin Destino .

Broken Sky (Cielo dividido, El)

Publicerat av lucas4you den juli 10, 2008

Two university students, Gerardo and Jonás, meet on campus and fall passionately in love. They enjoy a blissful romance until Jonás becomes obsessed with another boy and drives Gerardo into the arms of Sérgio. The young men become entangled in a hypnotic dance of love, longing, rejection, validation, and sexual expression.

Award: Special Jury Award at the Torino International Gay & Lesbian Film Festival in 2006.
