THE PLEASURE IS MINE Mexico 2015 93 min original version with English subtitles Script: Elisa Miller, Gabriela Vidal, DoP: Matías Penachino, Editors: Yibrán Asuad, María Calle, Production: Cinepantera, Producers: Christian Valdelièvre, Jaime B. Ramos, Fernando Eimbcke, Cast: Flor Edwarda Gurrola, Fausto Alzati, Camila Sodi Passionately in love and eager to live together, Rita and Mateo move to Mateo’s deceased father’s country house. In the beginning, it is all sex and fun until Rita’s desire to become a mother and Mateo’s fear of commitment. Suddenly, the differences surface, testing the shaky foundation their relationship is built on. Soon, a lack of communication and unrequited love unleash the violence that will inevitably spell an end to the couple. "Initially, the idea was to explore the different stages of a love relationship; analyze it in fragments, from the moment the couple falls in love to the disillusionment and disappointment that come with living together on a daily basis. In this case, Rita and Mateo’s notion of romantic love and life as a couple doesn’t coincide with reality." (Elisa Miller) Biography: Elisa Miller, born in Mexico City in 1982, studied English Literature at the UNAM from 2002 to 2005 and graduated from the Centro de Capacitación Cinematográfica (CCC) in Film |
