Argentinian director Marco Berger has made waved in the LGBT cinema world with Plan B, the Berlin Teddy award-winning Absent and the sexy short film collection Sexual Tension: Volatile.
Now he’s coming back with Hawaii, which continues his looks at being gay (or at least gay-adjacent) in the modern world.
Here’s the synopsis: ‘Sexual tension spills off the screen in this sweaty, titilating bromance from award-winning director Marco Berger (Absent, Plan B, Sexual Tension: Volatile). Hawaii follows Martin and Eugenio (Manuel Vignau and Mateo Chiarino), two former childhood friends who reunite during a hot summer in the Argentinean countryside. As they work together to restore Eugenio’s summer home, a game of power and desire ensues — forcing the two buddies to grapple with their sexual attraction and reconsider their relationship. With gorgeous cinematography, a lush setting and compelling lead performances, Hawaii is an intimate character study that pushes past social boundaries.’
Hawaii should be out later this year via TLA.

Great movie! Marco Berger is Argentinian, not Brazilian though
