Bastard
Directed by Mara De La Rosa
Description
On the verge of a panic attack, Andrea almost burns down the apartment after baking a pie. While her girlfriend, Mary, tries to calm her down, Andrea seems desperate to impress Mary’s dad. Andrea’s need to please goes from normal to desperate within a matter of seconds. After further arguing with Mary, Andrea finally reveals that their relationship is deeper than passion. The day unfolds into a frenzy of questions, breakdowns, and heartbreak.
