El Camp Machismo
Presented by Playnet Productions
Don Alexandro Da Costa is the proudly macho, bigoted teacher of a course that teaches young Latin boys all of his toxic ideas on how to be the perfect 'man'. However, all of this is about to be challenged when events in Alexandro's personal life begin to make him take a hard critical look at what his ideas of manhood really are, and how they are affecting those around him, as well as himself. Can Alexandro find the answers and solution to what it means to truly be a 'man', or will he be consumed by his faults?
