Summary:
A portrait of adolescent experience set against the blazing sun and azure sea of a small seaside town near Barcelona. During ten days of freedom, two best friends discover love, sex, jealousy and disenchantment and thus cross that vague border separating adolescence from manhood. [Avatar Films]
The film is rightfully carried by Nico and Dani and under Gay's artful helmsmanship it's carried with remarkable sympathy and believability.
A more honest version of "Summer of '42."
Nico and Dani merely retells a not uncommon tale without significantly enriching it. It's just too familiar to play as poignantly as it would like to.

I really enjoyed this movie; fast paced, plot kept moving with enough twist to keep you guessing. Well done coming of age movie; have NOT seen one like this from the American market.
