Who Wants to Marry an Astronaut? - A Delightfully Gay Romantic Comedy

Get ready for a heartwarming and hilarious journey in this Spanish romantic comedy that proves it's never too late for love! When 40-year-old David's marriage proposal in Las Vegas (of all places!) gets rejected in front of everyone, he doesn't let it crush his spirit. Instead, he embarks on a wild 10-day mission to find someone else to marry. Because why let a perfectly good wedding plan go to waste, right? 🚀💍

As one Letterboxd reviewer perfectly put it: '40-year-old gays also deserve their romcoms!' This charming feature is packed with witty gay references and quips that will have you laughing in your seat. It's the feel-good gay rom-com you've been waiting for!

Director David Matamoros brings us this delightful Spanish-language film that runs for 95 minutes of pure entertainment. Content advice available here.

Part of MQFF 2025 - Melbourne's premier queer film festival celebrating diverse LGBTQIA+ stories on screen.
