Akrobaten

This is a very difficult title to review. On one hand, so much of this film does it right - the cinematography, the acting, the very real sex scenes. But on the other hand, there's also a lot that this film gets wrong (pacing, character motives, etc) and it in turn results in a rather confusing story that is never truly solved by the end. The film is beautiful to look at, and I've never quite seen unsimulated sex presented in such a way on screen, except for maybe the film Love, so that was somewhat of a treat to see play out since I was not expecting that. However, the cons of the film outweigh the pros, and the film never really gets to the point and leaves the viewer to analyze these characters on their own. Sometimes that's a good thing, but in this case, it's just frustrating. Especially after a majority of this film centers on a very frustrating premise as well as long (and I mean excruciatingly long) scenes of construction work and lingering exterior shots; the film should by no means be as long as it is. Overall, this is definitely not one of the worst gay films I've seen but it's also nothing to gush over.

I saw it by accident , It is so intense , so artsy , acting is good , like I live in cold big city , looking for warm feeling , even this is a short time . and every sex scenes is very unique , haunted beautiful ,

Was interesting. Seemingly dark and intense, graphic scenes that would shame. And filmed in a very arty way. Like a media studies student on final exam...

However it just stops... There's no end... I suppose it's art imitating life, but seriously I like my films to have an end...

Ok movie the storyline?

There is no explanation, there is no explanation towards the end of the movie, there is no explanation about the ending and it's a bit too long.

The plot is realistic and believable. The acting is good, the cinematography is perfect. The sex scenes are real and this gives it that feel like you are listening to a friend's story.
