Taekwondo plot
Fernando is on vacation with his best friends. They stay in a beautiful mansion in an upscale suburb of Buenos Aires. Without the presence of their girlfriends, the men have the opportunity to talk undisturbed about their deepest feelings, their sexual desires, their fears and their conflicts. As in all 'men only' situations, the men feel free to walk around half-naked or naked. Due to the open and free atmosphere, Fernando decides to invite Germán, a good friend from his Taekwondo class. Germán, who actually likes men and tries to hide this, is immediately included in the group. Fernando is aware of it, but ignores this fact.

Another film by Marco Berger. This film is a bit busier and less slow than 'Un Rubio' or 'Ausente'. This is probably because the cast consists of many more people. Cinematography is mainly in and around the country house. A whole group of men are on holiday in a country house with a swimming pool. It is a mixed group: some are already in a relationship but feel free for a while, until their girlfriend comes to investigate...... Others are single and hope to meet someone to score. This occasionally leads to hilarious moments. Sometimes a bit of jealousy is also noticeable. The building tension between Fernando and Germán is palpable, but you have to sit through the entire film to know whether or not something is done with it........

Nice film where not much happens. You mainly see conversations between young men in swimming trunks. It is mainly about girls, sex, alcohol and drugs. A bit stupid all.
Among the group of boys there are two where something more than a friendship is about to develop, but only very briefly.
This movie is older than 'Horseplay', but they are very similar. Only 'Horseplay' is a lot more annoying, because those young men are a lot older, but act much more childish. These boys in this movie are a lot more normal in behavior.
