A sex scene in green intermitent light. Two young men in a kitchen, each having a coffee mug , in the morning after. A bitter dialogue about death, past, memories, life , about mothers and about status after their death. The two actors remind Publius Aelius Hadrianus and Antinous. And, for me, this is one of basic virtues of this special short drama. Second - the hands together as root of large senses. A not comfortable film but interesting for a precise portrait of old wombs and confessions based by trust and inspired clash between the first part , erotic in essence and the need to be understand by the other in the second.

I was so pleased to see the talented Maurício Barcellos in this short. He played a blinding rôle in "The Last Romantics" which I loved and he did so here too. Igor Mo was also known to me from the dreadful "My only earth is in the moon" but I'm glad that he redeemed himself here as an actor who could actually act.

The two lads were convincing in the bedroom as well as in the kitchen the morning after. There was some real emoting going on and for all its restraint, it was convincing. That the boys had experienced a shared pain made their connection deeper than their one night stand. And that was helped by the obvious chemistry between them.

I liked this film.
