Each day after work, Carlos, a language school teacher, frequents the heady surroundings of his local cruising ground. One evening he encounters a teenage boy from his class named Toni, and the two engage in a brief sexual tryst. As the relationship between teacher and student begins to develop, some dark truths emerge about the young man and his mysterious group of friends.

Why it matters

A tense, atmospheric thriller that uses late-night cruising grounds as a claustrophobic stage for shifting power dynamics and dark secrets.

  • Subverts the teacher-student trope by peeling back layers of manipulation and youthful menace.
  • Richly textured urban setting adds to the film’s unsettling mood and sense of isolation.
  • Aimar Vega’s performance as Toni is unsettling and charismatic, blurring lines between victim and predator.
  • For fans of slow-burning psychological horror with queer themes and a sharp social edge.
