Sexual dysfunction in a coming of age story

"The grown-ups in Lucia Puenzo's "XXY" are a glum lot. In their
defense, two of them have to make the unenviable choice about whether
to let Alex (Inés Efron), their 15-year-old, become, via surgery, a
full-fledged boy or full-fledged girl. The misery in their faces makes
circumstantial sense, but depression is the only state of mind Puenzo,
in her directorial debut, comes up with for the adult actors,
including Valeria Bertuccelli and the ordinarily vital Ricardo Darín
as Alex's parents."
