The scenes with Melissa Ponce are nice. She's very beautiful. I only wish she played a bigger role!
I agree! After posting the film, I did some research on her. In 2021, Laureano Olivarez announced on
Instagram a documentary called "En Íntimo con Laureano" in which Melisa Ponce (her real name) would also participate. From the link to her Instagram
page, I learned that she now runs a business in Pilar, Argentina, where she was probably born in 1978 (same age as Olivarez), although I don't understand why she was in Venezuela for the film's casting.

As with another recently bumped film, Eu me lembro, I've found that highly explicit scenes involving underage boys and older women are far more common than the reverse - by a large margin. I can list out a bunch of films with very graphic boy-woman scenes but only a handful of equally graphic girl-man ones. Any scene involving a girl is automatically viewed as more exploitative than if it involved a boy the same age. The old double standard.
I think the double standard is also due to the parents' behavior. In your post on 'Eu me Lembro', you wrote that the parents agreed. Regarding this film, Olivarez said in an
interview that at first they were against it (especially his mother) because they feared it would disturb his puberty, but in the end they agreed (fortunately, because today he is a famous actor). In the same situation, the parents of a girl would certainly have put up more resistance.
