Adrià Llauró | Alirón 2 (El Descanso) / 2022

when the wrong person comes through the door

Adrià Llauró (screenwriter and director) Alirón 2 (El Descanso) / 2022 [8.23 minutes]

 

What a difference a few of years make.  The “descondo” or the break has finally arrived and the boys in part two of Alirón, subtitled “El desconso” and released in 2022, decide to explore what  they obviously are now quite interested in. They retreat to the bedroom, and cautiously and without quite knowing how to proceed wonder about the logistics. Who kisses first? Do they take off their shirts?


      Fran insists Marc lead, since surprisingly he made the first move during the game. He moves his head forward to anticipation of a kiss, as Fran moves forward also in preparation for it. But just at the moment, Fran’s sister Carla (Valentina Scapusio) knocks on the door and enters, wondering what’s going on. 

     They immediately pull back and pretend they’re simply deep in conversation, but she wants to be included as well, sitting between them and obviously showing some sexual interest in her brother’s friend.

    Fran has to literally push her out the door, hinting that Marc has been having some difficulties recently and needs to talk them out with him.


      But a few seconds later Carla is back. Why doesn’t he share his problems with her as well, she demands, attempting again to position herself in a cozy corner with Marc. But as before, the two boys try to get rid of her. She finally leaving in a bit of a huff, but just as they move together once more, reentering to demand her computer back.

      Fran hands it over, but she still dallies, returning once more to find them embracing, they finally admitting that they’re trying to have sex.      

      Stunned for a moment, she finally takes her leave, to stick her head back in the door to tell them she won’t intrude again.

       But this time the two boys are so horny and sex starved they simply jump on one another, Marc putting Fran straight down into the bed. Obviously this break with include some true sexual fun.
