Synopsis:

Flama and Moko are fourteen years old; they have been best friends since they were kids. They have everything they need to survive yet another boring Sunday: an apartment without parents, videogames, porn magazines, soft drinks and pizza delivery. The electricity company, Rita, the neighbor, Ulises, a pizza deliveryman, eleven seconds, the Real Madrid-Manchester game, some chocolate brownies and a horrible painting of ducks, all combine to break the harmony of what promised to be a placid Sunday, and reveal issues such as the parents' divorce, loneliness, the confusion between adolescent love and friendship, as well as frustration in adult life. 'Temporada de Patos' is a movie that shows that, when the lights go off, we can see the stars.

Winner of six awards at the Guadalajara Film Festival including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Actor and Actress. 'Duck Season' is a hilarious comedy, shot in black and white, set in the sprawling Mexico City. Teenagers and best friends, Mok and Flama have everything they need to survive another boring Sunday: an apartment without their parents, porno, videogames and a pizza delivery menu. However, when the lights go out, strange things begin to happen. This is one Sunday that will be far from boring...

Flama and Moko are 14 and best friends. They are set to play out another boring Sunday alone in a flat without any parents, but a number of events conspire to upset the harmony of the day.
