A series of one night stands, strange encounters, and bizarre pickups leads him into a miasma of confusion and doubt. He thinks he has discovered love in Bruno (Juan Carlos Torres), but wakes up to find his partner inexplicably vanished. Gerardo wanders the streets of Mexico City, seeing flashes of his ex in all the male bodies he encounters. With a Dear John letter in hand, he struggles find the hidden meaning in this written rejection. The meaning of love, or lack thereof, haunts him as he searches for connection to humanity. The strength of this picture, which was an official selection at Sundance Film Festival and winner of the Teddy aware at Berlin, is upheld by profoundly artful B&W cinematography by Diego Arizmendi.
