SYNOPSIS:
There are no boundaries when love, sex, and destiny collide in this
sweeping visual feast from award-winning director Julián Hernández.
REVIEW:
From the director of Broken Sky (El cielo dividido) comes
this passionately symbolic exploration about love, sex and destiny. Kieri
and Ryo, two young and handsome Mexican men have an unquestioning love
for each other; a love that gives meaning to their lives and is expressed
through intense sexual bonding.
But when Ryo is abducted, Kieri begins a journey to find his soul mate
while under the watchful eye of a female spirit named Corazón del cielo
(Heaven’s heart). She leads and protects the lovers on their quest to
reunite. But the journey is not an easy one and when Ryo escapes, a chain
of events will test the lovers’ devotion to each other.
Praised by the Teddy Jury for "its masterful cinematography and its
visionary use of color and sound - for its explorations of love, desire
and sexuality within the framework of ancient mythology, juxtaposed with
modern urbanity," Raging Sun, Raging Sky is a visually stunning
ode to the power of desire and unconditional love.
