You Were My First Boyfriend

In this high school reunion movie turned inside out, filmmaker Cecilia Aldarondo relives her tortured adolescence. Oscillating between present-day, real-world encounters and fantastical re-stagings of her most primal teen memories, You Were My First Boyfriend is a hybrid documentary that explores growing older and making peace with the things that haunt us.
