Real by David Alfaro
Sometimes, it isn’t just a change of schools, is a change of life
YOU (Yousef) knows it very well. He is the perfect example of teenage rebeldy: drugs, problems and conflicts with his parents. Until he crosses the limits and they send him to a new institution.
Lost, far away from everything he knows, he finds an unexpected place for him, a place where he wants to stay forever: Me (Millie), his new schoolmate. Lover of freedom, transgressor and challenging, this girls doesn’t stop either of getting into trouble: bullying, alcohol and casual sex. They both are what adults and everyone around them see wrong, but together they make sparks fly.
YOU, in love as he never imagined, he can’t help the impulse of helping ME when she is in danger, and her, independent and brave, hates his help. Between them everything is fighting, mis encounters and radical adventures. And although everything they share ends up wrong, they can’t separate. They are the reflect of one another, in the outbursts, in the instinct, in the passion. That is how they fall in love.
One makes the chaos, the other covers it. Or they make it together and run away. But the adrenaline of living without rules makes everything explode. YOU steals his father’s car to scape to the beach with ME of the drugs and the abuse situations that make them hit bottom.
ME and YOU love each other to transgress rules. One entera the life of the other as the missing piece, the one that doesn’t just fit, the one that isn’t perfect. For them living is making things wrong. For them there is no “till death do us apart”, it is “until life goes on”. Everything is today, because sometimes... there is nothing more real than pain.
