Overview

Raw follows Arturo, as he sneaks out for his first hookup with another man. During the encounter, his shame around sex and intimacy begins to physically manifest as rotting blistering skin. When he returns home to find his mom, Manuela, back from work earlier than expected, he must conceal the spreading rot and confront his sexuality, all while facing his fears of potentially disappointing his hard working immigrant mother.
