Eduardo R. Calcagno directs this sharp, funny character study about an aging academic and his relationship with a teenaged pair of lovebirds. Bald and hard-drinking, professor Geppetto (Ulises Dumont) is a prize-winning author and a dedicated high school teacher who is involved with single mom Patricia. His student Cecilia is not only a talented poet but also one tall drink of water; moreover, she lusts for him. Abiding by his credo of never having sex with a student before graduation, he puts her off and befriends her beefy boyfriend Antonio. ~ Jonathan Crow, Rovi
