Plot

The film is about a nine-year-old boy's (Biel Durán as Tete) obsession with women's breasts. Tete becomes jealous of his baby brother who is breast fed by their mother. Tete goes on a personal mission to find the perfect pair of lactating breasts to feed on. Estrellita, a beautiful French dancer (Mathilda May) arrives in town, the answer to Tete's prayers. Unfortunately for Tete, Estrellita is the attention of many adult men's affections including her husband Maurice (Gérard Darmon), an older man working as the other half of her travelling act, and attractive Flamenco-singing teenager Miguel (Miguel Poveda). With this amount of competition will Tete ever fulfil his wish?

gollark: I learned how to use SIMD intrinsics properly recently maybe, so I could totally* work out a way to performance it.
gollark: Uncool.
gollark: What, length terminated strings or yclib?
gollark: One of these years I should probably work out how to apply SIMD to it, for performance.
gollark: I was lazy, so it reads (can read) slightly outside of the LTS buffer.
