13-year-old Rodrigo allows only one person into his own little universe and that’s his mum Valeria. When Valeria brings home her new boyfriend Fernando, Rodrigo puts all his effort into getting rid of the intruder. This coming-of-age story by first-time writer and director Rodrigo Ruiz Patterson succeeds in avoiding all the clichés of the son/mother/stepfather relationship and offers a sensitive portrait of the struggles of single parenthood.
