... life is a lemon, and I want my money back!

Two youths, high on life, go on a tumultuous road trip, with an agenda to explore the abundance and vastness of their juvenescence, unmistakably initiating with the carnal. One woman plays the catalyst. A life-altering adolescent episode forces them into adulthood. There are no lifeguards on the shore when the tide finally recedes.
"Jealousy knows more than truth does"... a wise man once said. The “dynamics of three” miserably fail, because we are sensitive and possessive creatures after all. And best friends turn into cordial strangers.
... aaah... Gael!

Alfonso Cuarón's "Y Tu Mamá También
