Festival favorite Desi del Valle stars in this touching, realistic comedy set in the familiar sights and sounds of San Francisco's Latino and queer cultures.
J.T., a young Latina dyke, has three pas sions: her skateboard, comedienne Marga Gomez, and her friend Desi (not necessarily in that order). When Desi's girlfriend dumps her for a younger woman, she journeys down breakup road with the requisite mourning and attempts at dating and recovery. Desi's family and friends help and interfere every step of the way, setting her up on an array of blind disasters — dates — with the "perfect new girl."
This first feature from Mary Guzmán is an enjoyable and upbeat look at relationships, from friendly to familial — and everything in between. We get to tag along on the emotional roller coaster of the dating world in this fun, intelligent, and sometimes painfully true-to-life story. As a brilliant diva once warned — hold on tight, it's gonna be a bumpy ride.
This film is a recipient of a Frameline Completion Fund grant.
