'One Percent More Humid' is a coming-of-age story about friendship and grief. Catherine and Iris, childhood friends returning home to a hot & humid New England summer, fill their days & nights with parties, skinny-dipping and rekindling old relationships, but when a shared trauma from their past becomes increasingly difficult to suppress, a wedge between the two grows and each begin to pursue forbidden love affairs.
"This film, awarded at the Tribeca Film Festival, is an independent drama that doesn't innovate in its format, but still manages to build an interesting story of friendship and how our past can shape our present. Liz W. Garcia, the director, screenwriter and producer, was one of the people responsible for the success of the series 'Dawson's Creek' from 1998 to 2003 - if you liked the series, you'll certainly recognize the similarities with 'Almas Secas'. Recommended for those looking for a melodrama about love, friendship and loss."
