Glue- historia adolescente en medio de la nada / Glue
director Alexis Dos Santos, Argentina/UK, 2007

In his first feature, Alexia dos Santos perfectly renders a portrait of the inner lives of teenagers: a tangle of passions, disappointments, thrills and dreams. “Glue” introduces us to three young friends experiencing this trance of youth together. Fifteen year-old Lucas is a small-town Argentine boy. Growing up in a tempestuous environment with a cheating father and a weak-willed mother, Lucas sets his sights beyond these disappointing adult realities. He fills his time hanging out with his friend Nacho, blissing out to alternative music and singing in a garage band. In secret, he also observes his friend's body and with burgeoning sexual desires with wide-eyed wonder. When Nacho and Lucas befriend local girl Andrea, the three disaffected teens hit it off, and their inner lives and fantasies intertwine like a serpentine dance. Sun-drenched cinematography and an excellent soundtrack(including great doll-ups of Violent Femmes) round out this strong debut. Winner Youth Jury Prize Rotterdam FF & Frameline First Feature 2007.
