Description
Joaquin Zoido's queerceañera is a whirlwind of telenovela-level drama and hijinks. When his childhood crush becomes his fake date, Joaquin must navigate the chaos of family expectations and old feelings that spark anew. As the day draws nearer to his coming-out party, an impromptu lie snowballs into a full-fledged family rumor, with everyone believing Felix is not only Joaquin's chambelán but also his brand-new boyfriend. To avoid pity and sympathies after a breakup, Joaquin and Felix strike a deal: they'll stay fake boyfriends until the party. But as reality sets in, Joaquin must decide whether a picture-perfect queerceañera with a fake boyfriend is worth giving up the chance of something real.
