Santiago, capital of Chile during the Marxist government of elected, highly controversial president Salvador Allende. Father McEnroe supports his leftist views by introducing a program at the prestigious "collegio" (Catholic prep school) St. Patrick to allow free admission of some proletarian kids. One of them is Pedro Machuca, slum-raised son of the cleaning lady in Gonzalo Infante's liberal-bourgeois home. Yet the new classmates become buddies, paradoxically protesting together as Gonzalo gets adopted by Pedro's slum family and gang. But the adults spoil that too, not in the least when general Pinochet's coup ousts Allende, and supporters such as McEnroe.

阿根廷女導演茱莉亞.索羅門諾芙(Julia Solomonof)執導的《臉紅的夏日(El Último Verano de la Boyita/The Last Summer of the Boyita)》是一部性別電影,是一部成長電影,做為2010年台灣女性影展的開幕片,一點都不教人臉紅,反而像是夏日晚風輕輕拂過,讓人願意陪上一聲歎息。

身體的密碼是《臉紅的夏日》最重要的論述,但是導演卻把第一場戲交給了馬的身體。看似無足輕重的主角身份介紹,卻已經把全片關鍵的威權與身體主題全都點明了出來。
