Before You Go

Daniel and his best friend Franco go out camping in Patagonia, but when their backpack and tent fall down a cliff they're forced to seek shelter. They trespass an unocuppied cabain and they celebrate their last days together before college separates them. Daniel is yet to come clean about his feelings for Franco and the next morning he wakes up alone, he looks for him and finds him In the middle of the countryside, with a sprained ankle and the backpack they'd given up on. While he does healings on his foot, Daniel confronts Franco about his future studying away from home, but he insists on his need to leave.

To forget the matter, Franco proposes a mark to remember their trip and their friendship: an eyebrow slit. The closeness of the moment builds tension between them, and when their faces are about to meet, the owners of the cabain arrive. They erratically escape through the screams and once away from them, Daniel kisses Franco, he does kiss him back... until he realizes what they're doing. Like two strangers, Daniel and Franco end their trip without saying a word. A car picks them up while hitchhiking, in the back Daniel glances at Franco but he does not look back at him. It's too late.
