Director: Hernan Gaffet The first feature from the Argentine director and screenwriter Hernan Gaffet, Ciudad en celo, managed to obtain the perfect balance, between the complexity of a love triangle, friendship, a suicide, a magical and nostalgic neighborhood cafe in Buenos Aires and a stunning tango and jazz soundtrack. |
Smart and intense, the brillant script details the lives of Sergio, Marco and Valeria the woman that both men dated even while the three were the closest of friends. The gatherings in the cafe serve as catharsis for this these three friends, each at the end of a relationship and alone at an age when many are settling down.
Sensitive and affectionate, City in Heat has received audience awards in recent festivals in Europe (Toulouse) and South America (Mar del Plata Film).
