Rooftop Films Presents:

LANGUAGE LESSONS
A film by Natalie Morales
(USA, 91 min. In Spanish and English with English subtitles)

When Adam's (Mark Duplass) husband surprises him with weekly Spanish lessons, he's unsure about where or how this new element will fit into his already structured life. But when tragedy strikes, his Spanish teacher, Cariño (Natalie Morales), becomes a lifeline he didn’t know he needed. Adam develops an unexpected and complicated emotional bond with Cariño—but do you really know someone just because you’ve experienced a traumatic moment with them? Bittersweet, honest, and at times darkly funny, Language Lessons is a disarmingly moving exploration of platonic love.

Preceded by LAURA, CARLTON & THE TIJUANA BULLS
(Michael Barth, Bobby Moser & Gia Rigoli, USA/Mexico, 11 min.)
A conventional tourist couple from the American South have an unconventional holiday when they attend a bullfight in Tijuana, Mexico.
