have lost 2 close friends to gun murders; PTSD sucks...only the pain remains, home alone...hope everyone watches this powerful message & follows the two links at the end! Gratefully
Fr bro like I've been binge watching gay short films and this poor soul just wants to see two adorable gay characters live a happily ever after 😭 is that too much to ask for? 💔🥺
@@NO0_ONE I hope you're able to watch: Red, White, & Royal Blue - Heartstoppers - Young Royals for the kinds of stories/endings we deserve! Wishing you much peace & love! ☮❤
Living ing in France where shooting is a popular weekend activity, you have tragedy like this once or twice every year. Excellent film and well edited.
This is a film you need to watch several times to capture all the subtle nuances between the 2 main characters. As much as I enjoyed this film, I just wish the LGBT+ community could have more happy endings. Bravo to directors/writers.
Fantastic acting. And amazing how much the writer managed to cram into 22 minutes. How the narrative sprinted along and the scenes flowed into one another. The ending was slightly abrupt, but all in all, I thought this was the best gay short I have seen in quite a while. Congratulations !!
The title of the book with the yellow and white cover that is on the coffee table in the last scene (in Español) is J D Salinger’s “The Catcher in the Rye”…. The main character of the novel struggles as young man to be able to relate to other people. The two guys struggle to express how they feel toward each other. …until it is too late to do so, except for the “extra-ordinary”, “super-ordinary” communication. Powerful short film! How much love have we (I) lost out of fear and caution, worrying about what the other may think or feel. Oh my…
Beautiful and Tragic. As gay men we go through so much. This really hit hard. Deep Message. Added to favorites and sharing with my friends and family. Im from Rgv as well ❤❤❤
This hits home hard...I had the chance to spend the night with someone that I loved but opted not to because I was afraid. He died the next day, This is the only regret that I have in my life.
@@just_a_random_dude_404 thank you. I think we sometimes make decisions out of fear and because of it...what I have learned is that being afraid is only temporary. Regret is forever..Take the Chance!
mkay, interesting. but the fact that bro got hit by a random bullet on the THIRD try is crazy. and this TELEPHONE he keeps playing with is ruffling my feathers
What a terribly sad film. It underlines why people should say 'I love you' to those that they do. Remember 'love' is natural and has no boundaries or human control. We all look for love, and when it comes it is magic, irrespective of gender. Hate and prohibition is taught.
This was confusing as hell. The second I started to care about the characters it turned into a supernatural murder mystery. The chemistry is there, the acting is okay, the cinematography is stellar...but the writing lost me.
I felt exactly the same thing. I understand dying and death, but I don't relish silly "supernatural" bs like the phone ringing and I also didn't like not seeing anyone at the scene of the "shooting" [besides the bf] --- who was doing it? And 3 shots? Was the last one a suicide? Horror isn't my genre unless it's done much better than something like this. I prefer much better written gay stories. Too bad, the 2 actors have potential with better writing.

@@penboyasgod6103Living free of superstition and faith based delusions is a prerequisite for intelligence in my opinion. From an early age, I rejected everything those around me believed unless science backed it up. The Freedom From Religion Foundation (FFRF) and The ACLU have my respect and support, always. However, when Atheists are dealing with deep grief a struggle can ensue. When my husband of thirty six years died my emotions were intense. I too found myself bargaining for a chance to have one last conversation. I wished aloud that I had suffered and died instead of him. Thoughts like those are triggered by overwhelming waves of grief which feel powerful enough to crush you. I’ve had six months, pharmaceuticals, regular counseling sessions, and while I’m grateful for every bit of that support, ultimately it is my innate rationality and strength which comforted me most. I wouldn’t criticize someone for behaving contrary to reason or logic during intense grief. Sympathy, empathy, compassion, and acceptance are admirable traits in a secular world. Wouldn’t you agree?

I don't get how and why he gets shot...was it a random bullet just happen to fly his way? Did someone purposely shot at him? He gets hit on the third shot..
2023 kamen mehr als 700 Menschen durch Mordtaten in Deutschland um. Die USA ist viel größer von der Landmasse allein her, ganz zu schweigen von der Bevölkerungszahl. Undenkbar, dass bei euch so etwas vorkommen könnte? Das glaube ich nicht. Pass auf dich auf, böse Menschen gibt es überall. Waffen begehen nicht Unheil von alleine, Menschen tun das doch!
@@gibby3198 Are you American? Probably. Because you didn't get my point. In your country, it is anything but "un-thinkable" to get shot at and die from. Since 1960 until today more people have died in your country from domestic shootings - all killed by "friendly fire" - than in all wars combined the US was ever involved in, since your Civil War, WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam, Yugoslavia, Iraq... so this is not a gay movie, it's an (anti-)NRA movie... - Peace.🕊

I'm tired of gay tragedy.
I’m old but I think the tragedies are becoming outnumbered by the happy ending. Maybe takes a longer view.

yes i did 😭😭😭😭😭😭

Da pena admitir que todavía vivimos en una sociedad donde esto es la realidad. 😢

oh the sadness of a lost love is overwhelming 💔💔💔💔💔
I just went through so many emotions in the span of 20 minutes. 👏

that took a turn…
Impressive and strong 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Smoking is stupid ... destroys the video.
On the upside, at least Santi didn't have to kiss a smoker.
Aren’t you clever.
They could have *and should have* left out the smoking.
I am sobbing
me too
Was Dylan hit by a random stray bullet? Living in Germany, this appears so unimaginable to me ...
As an American I wish I could say the same.
Mach's gut.
In Brazil this is rare but it happens a lot...
after someone fired twice already
As the other commenter said, as an American, we live with that possibility every day.

"multi-award-winning" - what were the awards please?
What is the deep message of the movie? You shouldn't live in the States because of this almighty NRA? I don't get the flick.
That you should always cherish the ones around you now before the un-thinkable happens, and your left with a lifetime of regret…

Exelente!!

There was no need to include the "cigarette" in the storyline.
Totally agree.
the smoking scene is soooo romantic 🥰😍
Retirei 👍,não entendi se ele morreu ou não

Okay, ouch. 🤍
Well, that was depressing as hell. I will remember the names and never watch anything these two produce.
Sem graça 🤔
