The Mirror 2026

Directed by Marco Berger

Young filmmaker Juan invites Mateo, a former actor who abandoned his artistic ambitions, to star in a short film about two men confronting a forbidden attraction. As rehearsals deepen, the story begins to feel less and less like fiction. Juan and Mateo begin unconsciously mirroring the very relationship they are creating for the screen. Glances linger, boundaries blur and the creative process exposes fears, frustrations and desires neither man is prepared to confront.
