coming of age Netherland gay-themed
G_P_12 July 2019
This 9m24s Nordic gay-themed short is a coming of age story, Valentijn Ave whose mesmerizing eyes say more in their direction than some actors speak. The music is well adapted, especially the end credit song "Dance Away." Niels Bourgonje, 29 yr old directed & Edited fantastically. Already received several awards, look for him. Timo Dries's geeky character reminds me of Anthony Michael Hall's performance in "Sixteen Candles." Would like to see more of Valentijn Ave too.

First of all, amazing cast on the main actor!

Those eyes and minute facial/body movements are amazing! He was able to reflect and show the realistic depiction of an awkward, ambivalent, shy love at first sight emotions!

I don't understand a damn word of what they were saying but wow! This short fil got me so romantically excited.

Well portrayed innocence of love at first sight!

Bravo!

P.S. More like this please :)

beautiful

Almost surprising. A young director reflecting in splendid manner something who seems out of words. Exploring the movements of body. Using each nuance, gesture - the scenes of hands or line - up are more than magnificent - for give a portrait of a special coming up, with each steps of tension, desire and need to be yourself. Short, a little gem.
