Pilar (Ericka Ramirez) and Felipe (Anton Araiza) are in their forties. They’re loners in the big city of Mexico City. They are friends or at least in a friendly relationship but Felipe doesn’t waste any time and proposes to Pilar. Pilar is very much caught off guard and refuses. The relationship takes a spin into a desperate but somewhat adventurous new level. It is during this time that Pilar learns of some of Felipe’s intimate side. One thing that comes out is a mantra that has kept Felipe afloat through some of his worst times. The mantra comes from a 1970’s cassette program that has a certain hypnotic discourse. It takes the two forty somethings into a relationship that is part romance and part road trip.
Filmmaker/producer Victor Audiffred actually brings the viewers of this show into a look at ones own Lonnie’s and to find out what really is the meaning of true happiness. Many people are like our two actors, lost in the middle of their lives. Not truly knowing what love means and not understanding what loneliness is all about. Yes there are films that the viewer can learn something about themselves. Pilar and Felipe are both wanting to be loved and to be in love but because they have spent half of their life searching for it they just can’t see beyond they’re own desperation. What’s funny is a 1970’s audio cassette can actually bring them around.
IndiePix Films brings this off beat love affair to us on DVD on September 24th, 2019. Now the quality of the DVD is very good and the sights and sounds are exquisite. This is definitely one DVD that you will want to add to your personal library. You will watch this one over and over and yes you will be able to see what your life might need to make it a true sense of self.
