Teddy Award-winning director Marco Berger (Horseplay, MQFF 2022) returns to the queer film festival circuit to continue his focus on masculinity and lust between men with his latest feature, The Astronaut Lovers. Pedro (Javier Orán) travels to the Argentinian coast to spend time with old friends, including recently single Maxi (Lautaro Bettoni). While Maxi is virulently straight, he is fascinated by Pedro’s queerness – and there surely is quite some chemistry between them. This playfulness between the two men soon shifts as Maxi sets out to make his ex-girlfriend jealous. Can Pedro keep track of what’s real between Maxi and him, and what’s just a bit of fun – is theirs a romance, a bromance or faux-mance?
