Fresh and endearing, Urgent Love uses highly original photography and exceptional artwork to create the playful world where Agustina and Pedro fall in love.
Agustina and her mother, an extroverted, sociable fashion designer, have just arrived in the small town of Resignación in Argentina. Her mother’s messy love life has caused Agustina to develop a mental block when it comes to boys. Pedro, a teenage “loser”, falls in love with her and gradually manages to chip away at the emotional wall Agustina has erected. Teenage hormones, the popular kids with their motorbikes and gelled-back hair, the bragging about sexual conquests…everything is intentionally exposed in this subtle, intelligent, and entertaining comedy that dares to be different. Synopsis taken from the Pragda Film Festival site.

Fresca y entrañable, Amor urgente usa una cinematografía altamente original y obras de artes excepcionales para crear el mundo juguetón donde Agustina y Pedro se enamoran. Agustína y su madre, una extrovertida diseñadora de moda, han llegado al pequeño pueblo de Resignación en la Argentina. La complicada vida amorosa de su madre ha causado que Agustina desarrolle un bloqueo mental cuando se trata de muchachos. Pedro, un adolescente sin mucho éxito, se enamora de ella y gradualmente logra derribar la barrera emocional que Agustina ha erigido. Las hormonas de los adolescentes, los chicos populares con sus motocicletas, el pelo lleno de gel, las jactancias por las conquistas sexuales . . . todas intencionalmente se exponen en esta sutil, inteligente y entretenida comedia que se atreve a ser diferente.
