TREMULO by Roberto Fiesco
Mexico | 2015 | 20' | col. 

Carlos sweeps and mops the floor of an old-time barbershop. The day before Independence Day, among the customers is Julio. Their eyes meet, and when the barbershop closes Julio comes back for Carlos.
They spend the night together, eating, chatting and even dancing, knowing full well that this encounter will be brief and short-lived.

Chickenpox is a very small thing if you’re young. But if you’re a grown-up it can be very dangerous. When Mommy finds out, she starts worrying about Carlo, her son, who still isn’t sick.
He’s growing fast, something must soon be done. She needs to find a way to ‘make him’ sick. But does Daddy agree?
