Overview
Set on New Year’s Eve, FUEGO follows Gio, a guarded bartender who recounts the story of how a salsa class—and a lie from his brother—sparked an unexpected journey. Through the backdrop of family tension and romantic possibility, Gio must ask himself what it truly means to carry on his father’s passion, and whether he’s brave enough to chase his own.
