OUTshine LGBTQ+ Film Festival, internationally acclaimed as one of the largest LGBTQ+ cultural festivals in the world, is proud to present the Florida premiere of the stylish comedy “The Astronaut Lovers (Los Amantes Astronautas)” (Argentina/Spain, 2024), its Men’s Latin Spotlight Film.
The film will screen on Friday, October 25, at 7 p.m., at Silverspot Cinema Miami (300 Southeast 3rd Street, #100). An afterparty featuring signature cocktails, light bites and entertainment will follow at Silverspot Cinema’s 5th Floor Lounge.
Set against a languid summer by the sea in Argentina, “The Astronaut Lovers” is a breezy comedy about Pedro and Maxi, childhood friends reuniting as young men. Pedro, openly gay and charming, finds Maxi’s curiosity about “gay shit” and his playful flirtations amusing. However, things shift when Maxi pretends Pedro is his boyfriend to make his ex-girlfriend jealous. This playful ruse causes Pedro to blur the lines between reality and fantasy, leading to unforeseen complications in their evolving relationship. The film explores how their game of pretense impacts their genuine feelings and connection. A sexy and stylish look at sexuality in all forms.
In Spanish with English subtitles. The film runs 116 minutes.
