    Beautifully Shot Period Drama.

    I just watched this film at the OutOnFilm Festival. It was amazing.

    The theatre was packed, so many people came to see this movie! By the end of the film everyone was in tears, what an emotional rollercoaster.

    The 3 lead cast members were so talented, especially Sergio who played "Ricky".

    The art direction was so good, they captured the 60s perfectly, costumes, hair, sets, props, everything on point! At the end there was a Q&A and they told us the director built most of the sets himself, what a talented guy!

    Lastly I want to compliment the cinematography, it was beautiful. They captured the emotion in each scene in such a picturesque way!

    Please go and see this if you get the chance.

    Amazing, give them 10 million stars

    An absolutely breathtaking portrayal of forbidden love in the 1900s-where every stolen glance and hidden touch is charged with undeniable passion. This film brilliantly captures the intensity of desire and the heartbreaking struggle to keep it alive against the crushing weight of societal norms. It's raw, emotional, and nothing short of incredible! I haven't cried like that for a movie in a while. Truly a masterpiece.

    Visually breathtaking, this film's cinematography is nothing short of a masterpiece. Every frame feels like a painting, capturing the tension and passion of forbidden love in stunning, muted tones. The way light and shadows are used to convey both intimacy and isolation is pure genius. From wide, sweeping landscapes to close-up shots that capture every stolen glance and lingering touch, the visuals perfectly complement the emotional depth of the story. It's a sensory feast that elevates the film to an entirely new level of artistry.

    Truly The Greatest Movie!

    Really high quality movie with great production and incredibly professional cast. It was pleasure to watch it. Highly recommended!

    Movie takes place in mid 1960s New York and production was very detail oriented and absolutely immaculate. Music choices for the movie was spot on and felt that it took me back in time and enjoyed every scene. It shows the struggle of the minority group and battle between the Authenticity and Normality, where society influences what's normal and one's true happiness and love is sacrifice to that social rules and guidelines. I feel like there could not be a better cast for the movie since they really fit into their characters. The Director along with brilliant actors did the great job!

    Beautifully capturing love and struggles

    This movie gave an incredible depiction of the struggles between your hearts desire and societal wants. The actors gave a phenomenal performance of how complicated relationships between same sex couples were and how far we've come to is public acceptance. This movie was emotional on all aspects. From the emotion of being the person trying to keep a certain way of life going, to the emotion of being the person being kept a secret. The movie has a bitter sweet ending that wraps up what many men and women feel to this day trying to navigate in this new world. There's so many moving parts to this story that you almost wish it was longer to know more.

    Brilliant shot period piece. Great story arch!

    This film is a beautiful depiction of living life with authenticity. Filmed for the 1960s the crew did such a wonderful job with the details. The sets, props, music, editing were spot on. The actors/actresses played their roles very well, and the emotion in the film is tuned to perfection. The director and the crew definitely hit the nail on the head. They brought together all the facets to ensure it was captivating and alluring to watch. Will definitely see this film again. My friends and family have high regards after watching the film. Hope to see more by this amazing team! Once again well done!

      Jay McKlien: I'm sorry. I don't know why I am telling you all this.

      Ricky: It is okay. People say I am a good listener. Probably we should head back. They will realize we were missing.

      Jay McKlien: They won't miss me.

      Ricky: You got to keep shoulders back and chin straight up. Take a deep breath. Hopefully that help a little.

      Jay McKlien: Yeah it actually did.
