@@woobinda65 agree. However I beleive the two are not telling the same story. GOC is much more tender in my opinion. The sex scenes in Reeds arnt gentle/learning (the son gets a pounding 45 min in, and later he tops), I do like both movies, but GOC is my fav. along with Mario 2018 - a beautiful movie, that needs a sequel.... (as does GOC, just to see the boys 5 years on, living/farming/loving....) x
This was really a beautiful film. Well acted, written and the cinematography was wonderful. No tragedy or anything, just two grown men falling in love over the summer. Beautiful. Even the ending makes sense if you follow the dialogue. It's similar to "God's Own Country" but this one stands on its' own because both characters are comfortable with their sexuality, are emotionally secure/mature and don't waste time with self-inflicted homophobia or artificial trust issues. Yeah, basically a love story for grown-ups. The title gives you a clue to how it ends but there is no "tragedy" or any trope constant in these types of films. Worth seeking out for a beautiful romance between two beautiful people.
Whoa. I just mean whoa. I don't really know you must have read between the lines and have different point of view. I felt that the movie's just damn silly, badly acted and executed. Tragedy is that the only person who loves the main character is his old daddy. To me this film was pointless, only a short lived sexual affair, nothing more. Obviously sex is important for guys, but these are so old already (and look like 26 yrs old) that they should have put more depth into it. Sexuality is more than just sex. That's only for teens who have never had any anyways who just think it's just penetration that counts. This is just a film made with a very bad taste.
Beautiful movie and cinematography, but I wasn’t a huge fan of the ending. The two actors had great chemistry and it’s wonderful to finally see a gay Syrian actor in a film even though his acting could use some improvements. Regardless, the movie was definitely worth the watch. Very similar to God’s Own Country.
I liked the fact that he didn't come off as a "skilled" actor. He had a raw natural feel. They both did, which for me made it all so more authentic. I almost felt like I was a voyeur to their relationship. Didn't feel like I was watching actors. I do agree though about the ending. It almost felt lazy. Like the writer couldn't be bothered to finish the story with a somewhat more realistic ending or continuation for that matter. There was so much meat to the body of the film and the ending fell flat.
The rawness, simplicity and beauty of how two strangers designed love in their own way. Complexity of this movie just sticks my heart so deep, shows how unequal (privilege issue) from Middle Eastern guy who wants liberty, respect and independence. Super touching story, the white boy himself plays the role so precisely beautiful (*and yes he's so beautiful) though my expectation for the ending wasn't wished, but I did enjoy the movie. A wholesome creation! 🤍
I have seen you, Great King Of Uruk, so many times in comments. Your words are always beautiful. The way you speak tells me of your divinity within. Or are you also a g-d from without? LU.LU.GAL UR.UK. Atra Hasas, Gilgamesh, Adad Ishkur, EN.LIL or EN.KI. Your wish spoken transpires. Humans are to be together in love. It shall be as you have decreed!
@@davidfryer9359 Thank you my dear, I may be as you feel I wish to see love, especially as I live in the midst of darkness, violence and cruelty. I cannot be as my self the same in my country... I'm sending love to the whole world💓
@@samobn1866 Sorry I have no idea. I've streamed it in Vimeo's video on demand. I rented the film. You can then watch it for 48 hours then the rent expires.
Sometimes I feel so bad... Why I'm Gay...?? Why I like man???? Gay love is illegal in my country... Then why I'm Gay... If I was born in other country where Gay love is legal then I feel good better & best... 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
You dont need to worry. I am from india too , i know it's difficult to come out. My friend came out recently and he's happy coz he did it for himself. You should be proud of ur identity. I probably can't understand your problems being a heterosexual but what i have seen around; coming times will surely be better
Une très belle histoire, singulière, en communion avec la nature dans cette contrée finlandaise. Tareq & Leevi de deux univers opposés, de deux pays foncièrement différent de par leur culture, leur inégalité. Loin du regard du père, ces deux hommes que tout oppose se découvrent l’un l’autre. L’amour sera leur exutoire…
The film is currently touring festivals around the world, so you may be able to catch it at an LGBT film festival near you in the coming months. It will be out on DVD/Bluray/VOD later in the year; for updates, follow our FB page facebook.com/AMomentInTheReeds or our website www.amomentinthereeds.com 🙂
I think you won't lose anything if you don't watch it. I mean it's not that bad but not good either🤷🏼♀️ The show is pretty bad and unnatural. The good points here were perhaps only the visuals. It looks beautiful but that’s where it stays.
You can rent this film on RUclips right now, or purchase it on Amazon Prime or on RUclips. Definitely worth watching, in my humble opinion. Little gem of a movie.
Heey! Does anyone know where I can find English, French, German, Portuguese or Spanish subtitles for this wonderful movie? I have downloaded film, but I can't find the subtitles anywhere and unfortunately I don't speak finish hahaha
Michael Santos I totally agree 100%. I just saw the movie on Prime. Very touching, and makes you truly think about life. An amazing movie to say the least.
This was such a refreshing film to see coming from Finland. It's odd that this is still one of few gay films that exist although this country is supposedly open-minded. Perhaps there's still prejudice in the film making industry. Seems that this film was made with a low budget (albeit not looking like it) and funded by group funding rather than production companies. It's a shame if this is the only way to make queer cinema in Finland.
Cinematography is the best thing this movie has to offer. However, overall the movie is a poor attempt of creating a story behind a simple hook-up. The characters feel generic and the writer probably never met a Syrian (or any other) refugee / asylum seeker in his life; it's like he based Tariq based on what he hears on the news. If long sex scenes are your thing I'm okay with that, because that's the only thing this movie is about.
A pretty Good movie - but with a crappy endig - a really nice romance between 2 gays - would make a cute ich coupple - both have trouble with their families - but they are Not Suppose to be - i wanna See them get married to each other sometimes #amomentintvereedspart2
Yup, think "Brokeback Mountain" and "God's Own Country" but a lot slowwwwer; it was like watching paint dry -_- On a positive note, the sex scenes were decent and the two male leads look good together set against a summer palette of forest, lake and pink sunsets. But there really was no plot to speak of. And yes deeper issues about immigration, generational social shift, race, life choices, etc were adequately explored through the dialogue, but without a plot or at least some concrete direction to the story, one quickly loses interest in those issues, and by extension the film itself.
Боже, почитав восхволяющие эту хрень комментарии, тут находящихся, я оч рад, что живу в России, пещерным человеком😅а не на процтветающем толерантном Западе🙈
Got it today on Amaz Prime, day of release....SPOLIERS >>>>>> Hmm.. prefer Gods Own Country by far.... Reeds is OK, glad I paid for it on day of release, if only to compare..... more graphic sex (son gets real hammered by handyman) / lots of dark scenes (finland grey-light), wish it had subs, as some conversation missed / beautiful scenery / son clearly misses his late mum / father very unsupportive of sons career/gay... how does it end
Having just watched this movie, and God's Own Country earlier in year, I have to say; I prefer A Moment in the Reeds. It's more soft and tender, with beautiful visuals and subtle score throughout. Both God's Own Country and A Moment in the Reeds are fine films, with slightly differing narratives.
I hated this film. It's just a very bad film. Badly acted, bad dialog. It may look good but it may just be the worst film ever. It just depends how young and vain you are. This film really makes me wonder if pornography is beginning to be romantic these days? That is just sick way to portray a beautiful thing called love. Btw, there was no love in this film. Only lust. I'm so disappointed.
Ah, It was kinda disappointing.. . I thought it would be as amazing as GOD's OWN COUNTRY but it wasn't. 6.5/10 for cinematography . acting was meh and I feel like the actors don't have chemistry. also them speaking in english is so off. The plot is also meh. haha
You should just learn how to write before you even open your mouth to say those stupid things that you’ve actually heard from some church or your parents who clearly don’t know what love really is and what they are talking about.

why this is giving me god's own cuntry type of teas
Exactly
yep, exactly
*Seeing how raw and cinematography beautiful it is, it reminds me of God's own country.*
It must be pretty there!
It seems that "God's own country" is more realistic and dramatic. Even more true, human... Anyhow, this has to be a lovely tender movie as well.
Yes, it reminded me so much of God's Own Country.
Agreed. I believe this will be great as well

"Basically a love story for grown ups." I like that a lot!
This literally gave me goosbumps and brought tears to my eyes :'(
Have a sad ending?
Actually I same 😢
Beautiful, feels like it has more thought and tactility behind it than any mainstream film...
Let us all hope it has a happy ending.
The trailer looks very promising, I'm keeping my fingers crossed too for that happy ending.
The Butler did it....!
It doesn't have a happy ending...
Sadly it doesn’t. I mean the ending felt realistic, but I’m still sad it ended that way. I’d love a sequel.
Beautiful movie, but the end broke my heart!😩
I agree

Do U know where I can watch GOC ?
Took me forever to find the title of the movie! I saw it on Tubi and I never found it again!
Somehow the formula between *the work* , *the nature* and *the gay* always produces a good movie like Hawaii (2013) and God's Own Country (2017)

A Moment in the Reeds was filmed almost two years ago now, so any similarities between the two films are purely coincidental ❤️

You should just learn how to write before you even open your mouth to say those stupid things that you’ve actually heard from some church or your parents who clearly don’t know what love really is and what they are talking about.
Try again, but this time using proper English.
this is really funny if you read it in a Scottish accent
