Gay romance ‘End of the Century’ follows two men, an Argentine and a Spaniard, who reconnect 20 years after a brief dalliance.
. But this seductive drama, written, directed and edited by Lucio Castro in his feature debut, carves its own niche as an intimate, time-jumping look at life and love’s fortuitous twists and turns.
The story unfolds largely in five unevenly spaced segments that move among the present, past and future. The first and perhaps most alluring part finds Ocho , an Argentine poet living in New York and vacationing alone in Barcelona, hooking up with Javi , a Spaniard visiting from Berlin , after they spot each other on the beach and later near the Airbnb Ocho is renting.
Taking that conceit for what it is, we abruptly flash back 20 years to 1999. That’s when Ocho and Javi did, in fact, first meet through Ocho’s singer friend Sonia , who, at the time, was dating Javi. Though we’ll discover that the AIDS-phobic Ocho was also with women back then, both men were apparently questioning and closeted.
