    A shy man , dreaming to a date . But each new try to seduce a woman faills . He continues find new propositions, in new styles of pick. Up lines but, unfortunatelly, the reactions are not exactly pleasant or the expected ones.

    But one evening, the succes comes . And the happiness becomes reality.

    Amusing, nice crafted, charming. Realistic , in good measure, and useful discover of another side of pick - up technique. The performance of Christian Harting is the axis of this story who, in its four minutes , offers fair portrait of good intentions and, not last, encouragement to sensitive men, reminding the importance of providence or...luck - sure , not ignore the feminist sparkle of the final-.

    Smart and heartwarming.

    In "Courage", we're introduced to a protagonist whose awkwardness is so palpable it's almost cringeworthy - in the best possible way. We can relate to his dating anxiety, while not being suffocated by it. We are witnessing a genuine character transformation.

    The film sidesteps the usual romantic comedy clichés, offering a new perspective that feels both contemporary and timeless. Its humor isn't just about punchlines; it's woven into the very fabric of the characters' interactions and the situations they find themselves in, creating funny and endearing moments. "Courage" is about embracing fear and vulnerability. A definite must-watch for anyone looking for a feel-good story that's both smart and heartwarming.

    "Courage" is a charming film exploring the common human fear of approaching the opposite sex. The protagonist's quick journey from nervousness to self-assuredness is delightfully illustrated and is both endearing and hilarious. It's a fresh take on the classic romantic comedy genre. The film's humor is cleverly balanced with heartfelt moments, making it a genuinely enjoyable watch. Christian Harting delivers a commendable performance, capturing the essence of his character's transformation. "Courage" ultimately delivers a positive message about self-discovery and personal growth while hilariously navigating the often daunting world of dating. With its witty script and relatable characters, it's a feel-good movie that will leave you with a smile and hopefully a newfound sense of courage.
