[Perro Perro] at Reeling 2025

Reeling 2025, the 43^rd annual Chicago LGBTQ+ International Film Festival, presents Perro Perro at Landmark’s Century Centre Cinema, theater 4.

Director Marco Berger (THE ASTRONAUT LOVERS) is back with another provocative, whimsical exploration of flirtatious desire and the dangers of getting too attached – a surreal tale that positions some men as literal dogs. Like last year’s festival hit, this film is filled with heady conversations that ask questions about sexuality and exploration through the unique framing device of a man’s attraction to another man who behaves like a stray dog left behind on vacation. Juan takes in his new, wayward companion, feeds him, bathes him, and eventually allows him in the house and into his bed, all to the chagrin of his partner, who warns that he is getting too attached. As Juan falls in love, his fellow vacationers push back and encourage him to think rationally, challenging his assertions that this stray can become a part of the group.
