Fine Young Men
Alternative title: Hombres Íntegros

Directed by Alejandro Andrade

After a year away, 17-year-old Alf returns to his Catholic boys’ school feeling out of step with the confident, athletic crowd he once called friends. Isolated and uncertain, he forms a quiet connection with Oliver, an openly gay student who sees the world differently. But as whispers spread about Alf’s own identity, his fear of rejection drives him back toward his old circle - leading him to make a devastating choice to prove he still belongs.
Fine Young Men is a tense Mexican drama about privileged masculinity, peer pressure and the violence produced by trying to prove oneself within a toxic social group. Alejandro Andrade brings control and sharp observation to the material, giving the film a disturbing relevance.
