"Captures the adolescent experience with rare and bracing veracity" Hollywood Reporter "A Sticky poetic reflection on carnal pleasure and intensely keyed to the wonderful-miserable experience of being an outsider teen" Village Voice

Synopsis

A coming of age/coming out drama set in a small town in vast and empty Patagonia. Young Lucas, a time bomb of hormones, boredom and family alienation hangs out with his hunky and horny best friend Nacho and bespectacled mousey girl pal Andrea. The threesome cope with the trials of burgeoning adolescence in the only way teenagers can.....getting high and getting off with each other. The two boys favourite past-time being getting high on GLUE and getting sticky with each other!

Reviews

"Alex Dos Santos's GLUE, from Argentina, serves as an example of how to refresh and make strange a perennial subject. There has lately been a flood of coming-of-age movies, but what makes GLUE somewhat exceptional is it's intimate, lyrical atmosphere and it's abstract, painterly use of video." A.O. Scott, The New York Times
