Synopse
A queer commune in a Western world of smoke and sweat: well received in Cannes, this prize-winning debut is an allegory between childish magic and real danger. 1982. 11-year old Lidia lives happily with her family in a desert mining town in Northern Chile. When an unknown, deadly disease breaks out, the rumour spreads that the infection can pass between two men via a simple glance – if they fall in love. When people start blaming her family for the outbreak and the counter-measures become ever more drastic, Lidia must find out if the rumour is true.
