“One Point Less in the Sky” (“Un punto menos sobre el cielo”)
is a short film by Roberto Carlos that seems to be set in Mexico.
Roberto Carlos and Oscar Calero play two high school teens,
developing a bond. They both pretend to
be straight and attempt to date girls.
Now in my high school days, this kind of openness with a
chum wasn’t possible although it came close (I’m thinking of a particular night
in August 1961).
But the film has a very disturbing first shot and final
shot, which explains the title. I don’t know if the script (in
Spanish) really justifies it. The end
credits also have warnings.
