Lucas and Ludmila are young lovers living on the streets of Buenos Aires where they navigate the city as if it were a board game.

Lucas works collecting bones and butcher-shop scraps in a truck, spending much of his time roaming the city with a gun, firing celebratory bullets at city monuments and excited by the infinite possibilities around him and the sense of impunity that love affords him. Ludmila rolls around on a wheelchair she might not really need, avoiding the responsibilities of her family. When Ludmila finally makes a decision that leaves Lucas alone in the city, he will have to reconsider his behaviour and relationship with his gun.

Lulú is a freewheeling and unruly film from director Luis Ortega (Kill the Jockey, El Angel) who's surreal cinematic language cuts through expected norms and tackles the tribulations of love, loyalty, and lawlessness.
