Set in the vibrant metropolis of Mexico City during the 1950s, our tale revolves around William Lee, a solitary American expatriate navigating a world both foreign and familiar. His life is marked by an almost perpetual isolation, interrupted only occasionally by brief interactions with fellow denizens of his small, transplanted community.The arrival of Eugene Allerton, a former soldier newly settled in the city, serves as a catalyst for change in Lee's life. This chance encounter opens up the possibility of genuine connection and intimacy - something Lee has yet to experience during his time abroad. As their paths continue to cross, both men find themselves drawn together, embarking on an unconventional friendship that challenges their individual notions of identity and belonging.In this richly detailed period piece, themes of loneliness, identity, and the power of human connection take center stage against a backdrop of cultural contrasts and geographical displacement. Through the nuanced portrayal of its characters' struggles and triumphs, the film offers a poignant exploration of what it means to find one's place in an ever-evolving world.
