On DVD 2013

On Christmas Eve, tearaway teens Aurora and Alejandro break into a secluded cabin in the hills surrounding Santiago, where they confront one another over the unseen Luisa, a girl who has been sending Aurora love letters. Alejandro becomes jealous and paranoid about Aurora’s secret relationship, and her plans to spend New Year’s Eve with Luisa in Argentina. Aurora denies everything, but just as the pair are about to split apart, they encounter another intruder, the mysterious Alicia, who they find unconscious in the greenhouse. As they nurse Alicia back to health, they become more and more intrigued by this attractive and waifish young woman - a three-way attraction simmering beneath their fascination. As Christmas approaches, the three troubled teenagers dance, drink, and share their minds and bodies, eventually discovering a closeness that will soothe their alienation and loneliness, even if only for the night…

From the director of GLORIA, and starring a trio of new Chilean talent, Alicia Rodriguez (Young & Wild), Maniella Martelli (My Last Round) and Diego Ruiz (Drama), NAVIDAD is one festive tale that will stick with you long after.
