ENG: Episode B.A. – Aristotle and Dante Unravel the Mysteries of the Universe

The story is set in El Paso, Texas, in the 1980s. At the center of the story are two Mexican teenagers with very different personalities:

Aristotle (Ari) Mendoza—a withdrawn, quiet boy who struggles with inner anger and his family’s secrets (particularly regarding his brother, who is in prison).

Dante Quintana—outgoing, expressive, knows everything about art and poetry, and isn’t afraid to be “different.”

Their chance encounter at the pool blossoms into a strong friendship that helps both of them find answers to the most difficult questions about loneliness, sexuality, family relationships, and their own identities.
