Aristotle Mendoza wants to blend in and be left alone but everything changes when he meets Dante Quintana at the local swimming pool. Free spirited Dante is everything Ari isn't, and his wanderlust for life and artistic spirit shake something loose in Ari. When their journey together is suddenly disrupted, Ari must decide if he is going to live in the world of infinite possibilities that Dante represents. Featuring a wonderful ensemble including Eva Longoria and Eugenio Derbez, ARISTOTLE AND DANTE DISCOVER THE SECRETS OF THE UNIVERSE reveals the difficult yet magical road to becoming one’s authentic self.
Followed by a filmmaker Q&A
