Miguel and Mariela are a happily married couple, wellrespected<br />

in their small seaside fishing village and<br />

looking forward to the imminent arrival of their first<br />

child. Miguel genuinely adores his devoted wife, yet<br />

also carries on a clandestine affair with handsome<br />

drifter Santiago, a painter of sensual nudes who is<br />

euphemistically referred to as “Prince Charming” by<br />

the village gossips. Santiago yearns to celebrate his<br />

love openly, while Miguel insists on secrecy for fear of<br />

jeopardizing his domestic bliss. As the story takes an<br />

otherworldly turn, rumors force Mariela to question<br />

her husband’s sexuality, and Miguel must accept his<br />

dual nature in order to refute Santiago’s angry claim<br />

that “There are thousands of ways of being a man,<br />

and you are none of them.” Stunning views of Peru’s<br />

Cabo Blanco coast provide an appropriately stormy backdrop to the<br />

tempestuous emotions of the three protagonists. As its ominous title<br />

suggests, Undertow dives far below the seemingly placid surface of<br />

self-identity and family ties, churning up waves of passion — and a<br />

fateful accident — that overwhelm the film’s bisexual love triangle.<br />

This Sundance award-winner enchants with unforgettable seascapes,<br />

and director Javier Fuentes-León eschews melodrama to present a<br />

transcendent romance in his remarkably-assured feature debut. With<br />

moving performances by some of Latin America’s star actors, Undertow<br />

makes it easy to get swept away.<br />
