A head full of conflicts, fears and desires. The fear of intimacy, the fear of surrender. The availability to dream, to fulfill one's desires. The romantic idealization of the relationship, of contact. And, at the same time, the naked reality, cruel and raw. Very good! Liked it!
It is very important to have coming out stories that reflect the wide diversity of experiences and not just some cookie-cutter narrative that resonates with nobody’s reality. It’s a complicated and emotional time and deeply individual. Well done.
Vous avez tout à fait raison, cependant il serait peut-être temps d'être heureux et donc de le montrer. Le cinéma gay est trop souvent dans le pathos. Un exemple intéressant est le film Taekwondo : l'avez-vous vu ?
@@gerardmansoif6919 . Oui, bien sur . Je suis un gran fan de Berger. Hawaii est un chef-d’œuvre .
@@davidbrown1566 J'adore ce film. Le cinéma argentin est vraiment intéressant.
@@gerardmansoif6919 . I prefer all international LGBTQ Cinema over American, which relies on cliche characterizations and storylines.
@@gerardmansoif6919 connaissez vous, par hazard, le film ‘Bad Boy Street’. Je te le recommande.
Loved this wish it was made into a full movie with the same cast
Loved the film. A coming out, coming to terms with his sexuality plot. The main character finally accepts who he is. And the music is fantastic! It’s so good it stands apart from the film. Where do you go to hear more!?
watch the interviews! Thanks for your support!

Great visualisations! It is so precise with complex feelings and dynamic of gay relationships. For those who are lost, or have lack of support or just simply living in society that rebuttal lgbtqia+ society, it is immensely hard to embrace yourself or assist someone elso l, for that matter, to accept themself full-fledged. When they go home, to their house where they being raised that way, and brainwashed society whom always meddling in your business in most cases, it just hardly that it'll go anywhere. That is in most of cases. Based on my observations, only the 'strong' one and though-headed survive.
Good story and great twist. I think the second encounter, while a terrible experience, helped the main character understand that he is not alone in trying to deal with the often traumatic issues of coming out and accepting who you are. In the long run it strengthened his own self-realisation. Hence the smile at the end. He can deal with it all now.

This movie is bollocks. What is even happening with character development or the plot. He doesn't even talk for half the movie. And then this guy headbutts him after a long dream sequence of them making out and no explanation about what the hell is even going on with him. This script needs a rewrite. The visuals are gorgeous but what the hell is going on here?!
I keep watching this over and over. Every detail is so packed, it'd take greater than I to ever unpack it all. And that level of "packed" is in every gesture: acting (not), screenplay, the pauses, each dance move, the levels of presence with the music, that killlller peck of a kiss outta nowhere when done with the ink on **his** face 😥😅💘
The active dialogue (beyond packed(!) and worth every second of the attention I decide to give it). The way them beats come in for the first time out of nowhere. Yes THAT surge, which made a sluggish heart (mine 2bclear) feel like a newly-white Christmas morning when I was 4 years old.
Damn you, Irish brothers! You tricked me into feeling and being human during 2020. At a time where it seems that it doesn't pay to be human. Pranked me into bawling my guts out like a big phat baby the way he brushed that kiss across the corner of her head, with one hand hardly holding the back of her head. ...to end this short but LoooooNG piece of cimematographic art.
His body language in that final scene. Hmm. It hasa to be the payback for her earlier "just in case." Yeah, just in case. Of course! It's what no amount of money can buy; and when (or if) you've been lucky enough to give or receive that level of grateful love....if you have been that fortunate+....nothing beneath that will ever do. And trust those steely Celts, Druids, or Whatev: I just got bestowed upon me the starkest blessing AND Curse imaginable. The choice is mine in my relationship-friendships. And when I happen ro be naked af with a past-present-future lover.
U thought the Irish not capable of this? Ha. Read James Joyce from Portrait of the Artist....thru Ulysses. And think again.
Am a fan. Nay: "lover boy," you guys. From America. Keep it coming, okay?
Quite a good portrayal of a chap having trouble with intimacy.

This needs to be expanded into a full length film, with the same cast.

This is excellent and begs introspection.Thank you !
Very well done with a surprise plot twist that I definitely did not see coming.
I took it to be about the main guy having difficulty actually fully responding to his gay feelings. The second guy was even further behind in the coming out stage, he was obviously curious and liked the main guy. So when they kissed and I assume they did coz he had the marks to prove it, the second guy went all weird and funny feeling that he’d just been outed. He reacted in a very primitive manner and lashed out. Having learned a lesson the main guy lived to tell another tale and was actually looking forward to the future?
hearditman I took it exactly as you said it, myself. I think you were spot on!!!!
wait isnt that two guy the same ?? ops...haha they look similar
When people are being themselves it lends itself to people being real and they are interesting in how they resonate with the rest of the world so to me that is how we are all interesting in our own ways.
Hi
aweee!!! so glad I found this ❤
It is always nice to connect with other people. Hello Ahmed
Did they make a longer movie and the editor cut out the important parts? Even if I try to fill in the mountain of holes in this story, it still wouldn't make sense.
Très belle vidéo il sont tre beaux j'adore les. Mecs
Okay, well, somebody has to give a less-than-glowing review, and I guess it's my turn. The acting, such as it was, was good.
Plot: The plot was pretty simple and common, as are the plots in almost all gay movies due to our community's general inability to think in paragraphs and string more than five short scenes together.
Characters: The archtypes were, well, archtypes. We saw the typical lesbian surrogate mother lovingly fawning over the angel-faced near-virgin. The lead was very drool-worthy (a beady-eyed fellow with an overbite would never do). There were loads of time spent without a shirt. And, in Irish gay movies, the obligatory trembling hesitation due to the pain of mortal sin (or at least a good five years bending over for Bubba in Purgatory) was present but not nagging.
Scenery: There's always got to be an alley. And there's ALWAYS got to be a club scene with a lot of prissy self-absorbed, attitude-showing, testosterone-deprived, young gay guys barely bouncing and looking bored. One look at them results in, "Yup, gay alright."
And, of course we had that looooooong period of glaring (or was it a short period but in slow motion?) that, regardless of the club music used, conjures in the mind Tchaikovsky's "Swan Lake"... or maybe Karen Carpenter's "Close to You."
The best part about this film was that it wasn't too whiney. So many gay "art" films are whiney. Lots of victimhood.
This film would have made a better painting than a film, but there are good things to be said about it: At least it wasn't porno, had no flaming queens wiggling and sacheting to and fro seductively, no unsuccessful attempts at humor, and no characters saying, "Oh, my boyfriend left me after two whole months! What will I do? Where will I live? I want to die!" There wasn't the archtypical cruel father and mother who disown their child and kick him out, forcing him to roam the highways through cornfields looking for shirtless truckers with big bulges. And there was no church concentration camp, horny priests, or lonely football players looking for someone to love. So really, the best thing about this film was what wasn't in it and the worst thing about the film was what was."
You are 100% correct. All style, little substance. Can't believe people fawn over this dreck.
@@jeffgumer3784 I know. I'm gay, but even I must admit that most of the gay "art" films are just garbage. Gay films and literature used to be a lot better when we were still closetted LOL. Look at a book/film like Borstal Boy, for example. Now THAT was a good book/film. Nowadays, pretty much anything "gay" is pure garbage.
Can someone explain to me what this film was saying? I don't get it at all.
i don´t get it - whats the kind of message you will get here - a secretly bicurious(gay) guy look several times to some guy (Mark) and the other way around - seems to me like they sense a deep connection - which leads to kissing each other - i don´t get why the gay guy beat mark up??? - maybe he is confused or he feels trapped(catched) - sorry for bad english - german guy
Read david brown's comment please..
Coming out and accepting yourself is confusing for a lot of people, especially men. You carry a lot of baggage of the straight world you grew up in. There is a struggle with self hatred and eventually self acceptance and love of oneself. When a guy who first came out, their perception is that being gay is all about sex. That's why when he first met the guy in the opening, the other guy wants to know him go for a drink and get to know each other, like a straight date. He went straight (opening scene) to grab the other guy's hand to grab his crotch. In the LGBTQ community, we called these guys in the process of coming out NEWBIES. We usually avoided them like the plaque, a lot of emotional baggage, i.e. religious backgrounds, in the process of coming out to friends and families which can be traumatic, struggle of self acceptance and love, fear of being perceived as less than manly. That is why in the beginning he struggles to kiss another man, because of social upbringing. Men are not suppose to kiss another man, etc. That could explain why the guy butt-headed, "Oh shit I'm not Gay". The same reason he refused to kiss the guy in the alley. Coming out is life changing experience, you have to assess a lot of things whether your friends and families will accept you.
MARK IS A HUNK...and handsome [the actor i mean]
Where can I find the music/background score?
Right here (club track)

This was brilliant and lovely. Thank you too all involved.
*Rule #1. Don't meet a dude for a f**#ck** in a ally, unless you are planning to follow through!!* 😉😉
can anyone tell me whats going on...? :)
Nope. No clue.
The kiss with saliva is goddamn hot. Hahahahahah
I don't get it!? The point is ... ??
It's amazing 💕😍film🎥🎬👀
The movie is nice. The first guy he meant was good looking. And then he said for a drink. And then they could go to the apart. That guys very cool. Willing to take the date slow. He was cool and nice.
Yeah
This guy has some serious issues. With the first guy, he’s impatient, pulls him close to him, puts the guy’s hand on his crotch and then withdraws refusing his advances to kiss him. His game is called “come here-go away”. Just leads to confusion. The second guy in the club he imagines he is kissing him, then suddenly they are actually kissing. The second guy acts like he suddenly woke up and found himself kissing the other guy, feeling like “what happened - how did this start?” and then head-butts him. Different things going on. Don’t know what is trying to be portrayed.
Is there somewhere I could find the music to this? It's awesome.
I WAD THINKING THE SAME THING ... Shazaam doesn’t know what it is, either.
Here you both go

I wish music in irish gay clubs was still like this, it was better just before pandemic, similar to this. you just feel great! or maybe im going on wrong days idk.. but yea evertytime I go, its kind of cardi b type of current hip hop crap remix, you cant even dance to that
@@joeylamourI posted it here. Hope you had a chance to listen to it.
The music is so so so amazing!! Is there anyone konws its name????
No but I had the club track made

Looking at this and all I'm thinking is how much I miss going out. Man Carona gonna give me cabin fever.
Same Here man. I miss going out so much, a few drinks, dancing, forgetting about the hard work week, locking eyes (or lips) with a cutie across the bar. Ah the good ole days. Hopefully live will get back to the Old Normal next year.
This mark dude, really needs to know what "taking it slow" really means. Why are you always in a hurry bruh?
subtext not for beginners.
Teşekkürler 😢❤❤
It is a pity that there are no subtitles in Russian, please add this feature!
Those like Mark...will Never progress nor find someone great & esp Nice for him.

I did not get it ‼️IS IT ABOUT SOME GUY WANTING A GUY BUT LIKE STRAIGHT GUYS BECAUSE HE DOSE NOT LIKE HIMSELF
Lmao! I thought the other guy was feeling it too! I lol'd when he headbutted the guy haha I had to re-watch it to make sure that's what happened 😂
IKR, but why did he head butt him, I'm confused now!
hi could u pls upload full movie link?
Well done.
Lover Boy Ilove Boy 😂❤
Why are so many gay films so fucking depressing? Can’t we just be happy?
I am a straight girl I don't know why gay romance is hot for me
I'm pan but it's thé same
Well probably cuase you are attracted to guys, so when you see two attractive guys together👀 that's probably why you find it hot
Same😱🤷💗
me too
Because you don't see women treated like sex objects. Only men:-) The tables are turned and you feel safe. Just a thought.
Anyone knows who sings this song?
No but here's the club track
ua-cam.com/video/OpFlj5fs6hQ/v-deo.html
Brilliant
Ok, i didn't get it .😕
The background music was more interesting than the "story". Was this just a long format music video?
What the hell??? It's usually the closeted bi lads refuse to kiss.
i guess th guy that headbumbed the other (Mark) is closed gay one and is in denial
Was there any need for the headbutt wtf was that
that was crap !
He tried to kiss him, that would mean he's gay. As long as they don't kiss it doesn't count.
@@ArthurBrinkman-c5z So what did the crotch rubbing indicate ? I'm not gay, I just need you to touch me, arouse me, yea I want to go to your place but I won't kiss you ! wtf indeed... Good short film Steven Mc.... though I need help with the head-butt !
I wish I could come out. It's very hard still to admit to what I am. I would love to have feedback. I love queer movies.
Is there a part 1 that's missing?
Maybe it's just me but I really don't know what is it all about.
The process of coming out. It's a difficult process for most people, you deal with your own denial, maybe you compartmentalize sex acts and affection, so you can get off and somehow still cling to what you thought you knew about yourself. When that's gone, you deal with everyone else, maybe you want to be perceived the same as before but when you come out suddenly that's not in your hands anymore, everyone will contextualize and second guess according to a certain amount of baggage that comes with being different. And that's not nearly the end of it.

What a strange movie, interesting, different, not sure that I really get it. Why is he smiling at the end after such a bad encounter? This offers a different take on gay self acceptance.
Wait what....?! That was awful to do inside the club! WTF

Why were the girls trying to get the guy sooo drunk at the club? The other way around would just be so irresponsible and dangerous.
From 11:36-13:30 was the only worthwhile part of this to watch.
English subtitles?

Hi 6263791129
هاد الحب الحقيقي ابوس العشقين الوفيين لابعض الله يرزقني صاحب وفي وصادق مثلهم وانا عاشق الصاحب الوفي
I loved how colorful and twisted this was. I have to go to Ireland, I just have to. Belton is a real babe. 🥵
I did that, I liked it for couple of months, now been here 5 years, I simply cant anymore, but I learned a lot about myself, I mostly connected with Brazilians. Irish- yes theyre friendly but mostly in their cliques, they have their jokes which I dont find funny, theyre very simpleminded, guys are undateable, as a foreign they cant take you seriously, they think youre just an exotic f..k to have, and also I cant take them seriously when they start talking nonsense, overall, not very peachy experience for me, but im glad I did it. of course this is just my experience and opinion, yours can be completely different. So yes, no Irish man for me, I was hopeful, but I didnt come true, this place isnt for me. But I was the same, imagining like its in the movies; a nice hot ginger lad whos gonna sweep me of my feet, overall I had enough, I feel like im wasting time here. Im most likely going to Canada after winter, been there before I like it better than here. And to you, good luck, hope you find here what I didnt
Hopefully it’s just me but the audio isn’t matching what I’m watching
Ja OK 👍🌈💞
Ja 👍💞🌈👉❤️
Lol it looks like a rave or somthing and the song is like 80's discotheque love type of beat
I don't think he knows what way to turn

The club ending was .. strange.
How many fucking ads can you put on one short film????

That was nuts, why in the world did that guy head bump him, don't get it.
Because they were in public. In the men's room he would have gone down on his knees, whereas in the middle of the dance floor he was basically outed, he panicked, and felt compelled to put up a front and go full heterosexual caveman.

Well it is leds violent than Krazy Kat cartoon .... She got hit with a brick in the head and fall in love......This is not a cartoon, it's real life ... Hit someone in the face with you own head is a violent act. It should be reported to the police even is your friend, partner, anybody. Don't keep it to youself ...
