  • Jaisus Kev, some really thick commenters below, inna!? It's about how boys often feel very deep and powerful affection for each other, but are forced by a homophobic society to hide those feelings behind a mask of risky, sometimes violent bravery. It is a masterfully done 3 minutes of film.

  • I would have to say that the brilliance of this film is in its subtlety. A lot of gay shorts like to provoke the viewer by extreme use of sexuality, this one however focuses on intimacy, and, on the power of attraction that erupts in seconds without reason. Just like, real life.

  • @poseidonrox95 that a polite way of saying they're weird aha :p

  • oh Irish people.... so... different..

  • Luv it!!!!!  Very intense :)

  • Really good!

  • Touched was by the intimicy and though I'm Dutch I could understand every word. Men are supposed to act like men, and when you do not, people regard you as strange, as a poof. That is wrong but I know a lot of gay men, including myself who don't, who are not like that. Drink beer, play soccer and just hang about. Stereotypes often don't apply. That's what I want to say to Irish kids who feel gay. Do not force yourself in stereotypes if you don't like that. Further I support Ireland and I'm gay

  • Oh my god.

    So friggen cute. <3

  • A lovely short film which deserved the recognition it got at the film presentations. I wish people would quit using the made up word of 'Bromance' - it's such a pathetic modern made up word. Are people ashamed to say the word LOVE?

  • I like how he gave him the jacket.
