The Argentinean movie “XXY” [Adult], is the story about 15 year old Alex who confronts adolescence. Alex (Ines Efron,) does not just face the usual choices and life decisions, Alex's choices and decisions are monumental as she/he was born an intersex child. As Alex begins to explore her sexuality, her mother invites friends from Buenos Aires to come for a visit at their house on the gorgeous Uruguayan shore, along with their 16-year-old son Álvaro (Martin Piroyanski.) Alex is immediately attracted to the young man, which adds yet another level of complexity to her personal search for identity, and forces both families to face their worst fears.
The movie is in Spanish with subtitles in English and won 12 awards! Running time is 91 minutes. For more information about this movie click here!
