Putito

About This Movie

Putito is an intriguing blend of documentary and drama, where the lines blur in a fascinating way. The film centers around José Carlos Henríquez, a feminist activist who also happens to be a male prostitute, playing himself. This duality brings a raw, almost unsettling honesty to the narrative. The pacing feels unhurried, allowing viewers to sink into the depths of the characters' lives. What stands out is the way it tackles heavy themes like gender, sexuality, and societal norms without feeling overly preachy. The practical effects are minimal, but the authentic performances pull you in, making everything feel very real. And having both censored and uncensored versions adds a layer of complexity to its accessibility and interpretation.
