I'm Gonna Explode (Voy a explotar)
Voy a Explotar follows the romantic escapades of Roman and Maru, two troubled teens who initiate an impossible rebellion against the adult world.

Tortured by violent fantasies, and craving the attention of his father, Roman attempts suicide several times. His life is changed when he meets Maru, a solitary girl who is sexually harassed by her relentless ex-boyfriend.

United in rebellion, Roman and Maru disappear to a place where no one will find them; the roof of Roman's house. Their new life together pushes them to discover their sexuality and an intense intimacy.

Realizing they will soon be discovered and separated, the young pair depart for the real world, where the wounds are true and the actions have consequences.

Reminiscent of Jean-Luc Godard's Pierrot le fou, writer/director Gerardo Naranjo's third feature film captures all the angst, uncertainty and vitality of youth.
