A Few Feet Away review – Buenos Aires slacker tries to balance app life and real sex in vivid hookup drama In "A Few Feet Away," Tadeo Pestaña Caro's debut feature, the vibrant cityscape of Buenos Aires serves as a backdrop for a searing critique of modern dating culture.
The film follows 20 year old Santiago as he navigates the treacherous waters of online hookups and real life intimacy. Caro's portrayal of Santiago's compulsive screen time is both fascinating and unsettling.
Swiping through dating app profiles with an almost Pavlovian response, Santiago is bombarded with naked torsos and half naked selfies.
