John has been the perfect son to his devoted mother, Mary, since the day he was born. When he starts a new year at a private Catholic school, he meets Lilith, a strange and rebellious girl who rejects her strict upbringing. Their relationship soon becomes a game of truth or dare that borders on sacrilege and pushes the moral boundaries of John. All in the name of love.
In a year when nuns have become fashionable again, we present Lemonade Blessing, the debut film by Chris Merola, which, with plenty of bite and generous servings of black humour, shakes up Catholic morality “made in USA”. A generational comedy as bold as it is precise, in which Jake Ryan shines, one of the protagonists of Asteroid City by Wes Anderson.
Spanish Premiere. With the presence of Chris Merola
