Barrio Boy
A Latino barber embarks on an erotically charged odyssey of self-discovery over one hot summer in Brooklyn.
Director: Dennis Shinners
Overview
A chance encounter on a basketball court sparks an instant attraction between Nuyorican barber, Quique, and a handsome Irish stranger passing through town to settle his late father’s affairs. As this friendship blossoms, so do suspicions about the nature of their relationship – especially to the jealous eye of Cuz, Quique’s childhood friend turned local bully. Quique’s quest for love and self-acceptance is further realised as he navigates his way through complex and often messy layers of sexuality, family, friends, race and class.
