This film was my big surprise at the Puerto Rico Queer Filmfest, directed and co-starring by Rafael Albarrán, at first and to be honest with so many international films at the festival I hesitated to see it. I had a movie marathon, one after the other, and I thought I would take a break to eat something and watch the next one. But at the end I rethink and decided to watch it. And damn good I did!
F. L. Y. It is one of those few queer comedies that you really enjoy from beginning to end, whose plot flows from a fearless comedy to some tender drama. It's goofy but brave goofy. Its plot focuses on the lives of Max and Rafael, Max has always felt a little contained in the queer world, while Rafaelis more relaxed. After a breakup, they meet 5 years later, Max has another partner, Rafael arrives completely different and to make matters worse, they are both trapped by the Covid pandemic in a house.
This is a genuine comedy, with very good performances from its two protagonists played by Trent Kendrick and Rafael Albarran, very well supported by a super effective supporting cast, highlighting Shea Diamond, a transsexual best friend of Max who has among the most funniets and tender moments of the film. Ursula Christian also stands out as Max's endearing grandmother and the Puerto Rican actresses Carola García and Irma Mendez, Rafael's mother and grandmother.
The production values are impeccable, the editing, the music. A comedy that manages the times very well. It knows when to make you laugh, cry, but above all F. L. Y. Dares to move like Rafael's character, without fear, without complexes; honest with themselves.
Highly recommended.
