Sublime is a thoughtful and tender handling of a teen’s emerging sexuality. Shy 16–year-old Manuel (Martín Miller) comes alive when he, his best friend Felipe (Teo Inama Chiabrando) and other buddies form a garage rock band. The two boys, friends since childhood, have a close, easy relationship made even more intense with the band and their music making. Strains develop for Manuel when his best mate starts dating a girl. Manuel also begins to date a female classmate, yet all the while suppressing his nascent sexual feelings for Felipe. Confused, and fearful that his feelings are not mutual, he retreats into himself, eventually lashing out which forces him to confront his feeling head on.
But Manuel’s latent feelings for Felipe come bubbling to the surface – could they be more than friends? Will he take the plunge to discover whether the feelings are mutual, or would he be risking their friendship? Mariano Biasin’s acclaimed coming-of-age film is a celebration of young love and its innocent beauty. A sensitive feature debut with this sweet, queer, coming-of-age drama.
