Film Synopsis

Mexican star Gael García Bernal makes his initial foray into directing with Déficit, a seemingly straightforward story about a house party held just outside Mexico City. Taking his cue from films like Alfonso Cuarón’s Y Tu Mamá También (in which he co-starred), García Bernal examines the differences between the classes in Mexico, focusing on the subtlest undercurrents of tension. A beautifully nuanced script, filled with ironic dialogue and situations, makes for a compelling portrayal of the state of Mexico today.
