ACUITZERAMO


Salvador, a gay Mexican elder who has lost his partner of 15 years, calls his partner's estranged son, Anthony, to tell him of his father's passing. Unaware of their relationship, Anthony travels from Chicago to a small rural town in Mexico to attend his father's funeral. Salvador invites Anthony to his home to pick up mementos his father wanted him to have. As family secrets are exposed, identities and perceptions are challenged.
