Marcelo

Marcelo feels he's found the incarnation of his favorite superhero in Julio, his troublesome and eccentric neighbor whose biggest dream is to become a porn star, but Mrs. Martha, who still treats her son Marcelo like a kid, will never permit such a relationship to flourish. Emotionally disturbed, she will try to protect the only thing she's got left in the world: her son.

Directed by Omar Yñigo, Marcelo leans on a strong ensemble — Héctor Jiménez, Laura Zapata, Olga Segura-Gall — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 2012.
