Prora

I saw this as part of a collection of short films at last month's London Lesbian & Gay Film Festival ... and this was the film that stayed with me most.

The location is absolutely stunning, and the film makes the most of it with truly haunting images - and it is these that linger in the mind long after the film finishes ...

The storyline is somewhat derivative, but the character of Jan is well formed, and you can really feel his emotions.

The ending is one of those which leaves it up to you to decide - which I like, as I imagine the different possibilities ... but if you're the sort of person who wants everything to be nicely sewn up, prepare to be disappointed !

Where can i go to watch or download these amazing movies.

What the hell is a Nazi holiday camp? It's as creepy as an internment camp by the seem of things. The lads are very cute though.

The BOF DVDs are just filled with the experiences that I wish I'd had.

It's not the easiest time for Jan, but at least there was a hope of something positive at the end of it.

It has a 'Hollyoaks' or 'Skins' type feel to it and I can see it appealing to younger viewers.

Concise and contained, but it would make a great longer film. I'd love to know how they progressed after this point.

beautiful. smart. and touching. the film who reminds many others but , for this motif, it remains special. because it is a simple story about friendship, a place of past, teenagers and a gesture. and the end, the end is really useful for define the essence of story. because it is not exactly sad or melancholic but the wise definition of the end of a superb age. and the reason for Prora to be one of the films who gives more than a nice show but a perspective - precise, realistic - of the friendship, games, limits, shame and pain. and this does it a film about grow up more than a love story.
