Before Madrid | Coming-of-Age Short Film by Nicolás Botana, Ilén Juambeltz

A secluded spot, condoms – and a couple of pointers from a friend, just in case: surely that is all they need to finally take things to the next level? The only problem is time. Early tomorrow morning Micaela is moving to Madrid, while Santiago is staying behind in Uruguay. Sometimes it’s best not to have too many fixed ideas about how things should go and to realise some experiences can still be shared, even with an ocean between the two of you.
