Los nuevos

Thiago, Pilar, and Bruno cross the unstable threshold between adolescence and adulthood—amidst a scorching summer and an isolating winter—with Buenos Aires serving as a labyrinth they are beginning to decipher. How does one grow up when adults seem like enemies? How does one face the pressure to become something one never chose? What forms can love and desire take? Marked by the loss of his mother, Thiago seeks to find his footing in a world from which he feels cast out. From a university in the United States, Bruno tries to find a language that defines him amidst a foreign landscape and tongue. Pilar, who has always acted as the group’s center of gravity, is tasked with holding together what remains of this surrogate family while her own falls apart.
