“…Miguel and Santiago are the main characters of the critically acclaimed feature-length gay romantic drama Undertow (originally titled Contracorriente).

The movie is a Peruvian ghost story set in a small seaside village. It follows Miguel, a happily married fisherman expecting his first child, who carries on a secret romance with Santiago, an openly gay painter who is ostracized by the conservative locals. When Santiago tragically drowns, his ghost returns, and Miguel must choose between living up to the town's rigid traditions and embracing his truth.” [Source: Google AI]
