Please also note: filmmaker Javier Fuentes-Leon is available for interview by request the week of November 15.
In this unique ghost story set on the beautiful Peruvian coastline, a married fisherman struggles to reconcile his devotion to his male lover within his town's rigid traditions. Miguel (Cristian Mercado), a handsome, young and beloved fisherman, and his beautiful bride, Mariela (Tatiana Astengo), are about to welcome their first child. But Miguel harbors a scandalous secret. He's in love with Santiago (Manolo Cardona), a painter who is ostracized by the town because he's both agnostic and gay. When Santiago drowns accidentally in the ocean's strong undertow, he cannot pass peacefully to the other side. He returns after his death to ask Miguel to look for his body and bury it according to the rituals of the town. Miguel must choose between sentencing Santiago to eternal torment or doing right by him and, in turn, revealing their relationship to Mariela—and the entire village.
Winner of the World Cinema Audience Award (Drama) at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival, and Outstanding First Feature Award at 2010 Frameline Festival. UNDERTOW is Peru's Official Selection for the Oscars. Written and directed by Javier Fuentes-Leon.
Running Time: 100 minutes/ This film is not rated/ In Spanish (fully subtitled in English).
