Keep Coming Back

Keep Coming Back

Eighteen-year old Emilio can hardly keep his hormones under control when he's suddenly faced with handling the cursed inheritance of a rural dovecote for carrier pigeons following the death of his mother. Looking to settle his mother's debts, Emilio and his mother's boyfriend Juan uncover a legacy of local bird racing championship prizes in their pigeon coop, inspiring them to begin training their feathered flock for an upcoming race. As Emilio navigates a weighty beverage of new, all-consuming sensations - including grief, lust and romantic longing - he discovers the local community's gay orgies and the mythical legend of an avian hero named Winkie, all while realizing that fate sometimes hangs on something as fragile as the flight of a dove. Deliberately surreal and packed with offbeat humor, this fascinating debut feature from director Sergio de Leon is one of the most vivid and original queer coming-of-age films in recent memory.
