My Straight Son

Successful photographer Diego and doctor Fabrizio are an ordinary couple, with a circle of good friends and established careers, and are now thinking about the next step - moving in together. Out of the blue, Diego's teenage son Armando, from his long-ago affair in Spain, arrives to live with him in Caracas. Armando, full of anger towards the man who abandoned him and Diego, who barely recognises the son he hasn't seen for many years, will have to find a way to accept each other and re-establish their bond. At the same time, Fabrizio is violently beaten up by a gang of homophobes and taken to hospital. Equally touching and humorous, this is a heart-warming look into the complexities of gay fatherhood and homophobia. (Febiofest)
