- 'lúbtha' is a short film inspired by true events and follows the story of a teenager dealing with his sexuality whilst having to grow up in early 90s Northern Ireland. As physical and mental abuse become a daily struggle, Fintan retreats into a world of anger and silence. With no solution on the horizon, he yearns to escape from the small town he’s been trapped in all his life, bringing nothing but his younger brother. As he comes closer to planning his journey to freedom, one night he is shown the reality of acceptance and love.

Me: clicks on an Irish short film
Guy in video: has an Irish accent
Me: :o
That's me with every irish short film i watch
:o
Same ha
Leila Quinn
me: wOw
Also guy in the video: fOR fUk SaEk
irish people always sound so aggressively nice when they talk
Well, Northern Irish is quite hard while most other Irish accents are much softer
The Donegal is the worst accent, apparently we speak to fast turns out in oral exams our accent screws people over
Rory O' Donnell Sort of like the Derry accent
Rory O' Donnell my dad’s family is from Donegal and my mam’s from Longford. The difference is astounding 😂
One word to describe Irish people: loud as fuck
how does he look 40 and 17 at the same time
Ikr
Indeed. We call that a "viejoven" in spanish.
@@MicaelLopes Yeah, it doesn't have an English translation though.
thats one ugly foo
Not Hollywood swindled up. Not make-up to the face. Natural. He also most likely has actually lived with smoker(s) or does smoke. It ages you a lot. People should realize if you want god skin. You can't just blame acne. Smoking does it to.Besides also his face structure makes it seem he is older.As his broad face and cheeks becoming more broad.
"ARE YOU MAD BECAUSE I ATE ALL THE TOAST" why aren't we talking bout that line?
Because I couldn't understand a thing they said 😂😂😂😂
Kid went from "toast" to "are you gay" in half a fence, he'll be ok hahahaha
Id be so angry if someone ate all my toast😡
@@TintinaLily same here😂
@@zayb07 It was REALLY good toast tho
The actress who played the mom is extremely convincing
... and she has a naughty mouth, too.
@@tracer740 I met more than a few Irish mothers who had mouths just like this.
@@reepacheirpfirewalker8629 - Heavens to Mergatroid! !!!
I agree - excellent performance
@@tracer740 thats bad to u? , most irish people have mouths like that though we are kind people
The actress who makes the ginger's mom is so good. She made me hate her, but she's probably sweet if she plays in that kind of movies. 👌
If she made you hate her, that's a good thing!
no one is that good an actress she must be really horrible in real life
@@williamf4544 You're a new kind of stupid aren't you?
She's good at taking on a role! I love when an actor or actress can make me feel a string emotion. And I like that they showed and abusive mother instead of what we normally see: an abusive father. It shows even women can be drunks, controlling, violent and hateful.
@Ocean Blue yeah you might not get this reference but the person who plays billy Hardgrove in stranger things (the baddie) is the sweetest person you'll ever meet (at least in the interviews I've watched with him in them)
This is how I came up. Young people now walk around holding hands, colored hair ... lovely. I don't want to talk to them about the past at all. I just want to watch them teach my heart how it could have danced. Best of joy to all of you.
That is the best way I have heard that sentiment expressed, I feel the same way.
That dude, is what you expect to get when prince Harry meets Ed Sheeran....
Jayden_ Martin hell nah he would’ve been hella finer 😭
Jayden_ Martin 😂😂😂😂😂😂
He doesn't look like either one of them to me, except he is a ginger
LMAO
lol
God the scene with his mum felt so claustrophobic, perfect
The actress playing the mum is absolutely fantastic. Very scary. Really enjoyed the film.
I‘m from Germany but I would consider myself as a good English speaking person. But I understood almost nothing from this video.
I still love it
it's the Northern Irish accent. even most of the Republic of Ireland can't understand them half the time.
your English obviously seems very good, not a single mistake in your comment. that's more than I can do in German anyways.
I am Russian, the same thing. But there were subtitles.
I'm English and I'm struggling :)))
Mir ging es genauso.😂
I wanna end me-
ni protestants ni catholics
🤝
making fun of each others
northern irish accents
When he stayed in his friends house and just started to cry really got me cos I’ve had friends who asked to stay in mine purely just to get away from their parents as well yeno
This is easily one of the best gay themed shorts I’ve seen in a while. The script, performances, and cinematography were all outstanding. Bravo
I agree! Also a good one: The Indonesian short Gay film "Pria". It's here on youtube as well.
‘Kiss of the Rabbit God’ is great too! ruclips.net/video/bmCw-e72zs8/видео.html
I have to agree, finally one that doesn't end in total heart break but with hope!
ALSO, why's nobody talking bout the fact that the Fintan's lil brother looks more like the other boy???
Lol i thought so too
😳
Mum was busy with the mailman
Mom been sleeping with Steve
Fionntan*
Am I the only one who fell in love with him at 8:00 and really think he's beautiful?? I mean I saw these comments saying he's ugly and looks old while I was oH MY GOD WHY WASN'T I BORN IRISH
*HE COULD BE ONE OF THE FREAKIN WEASLEY BROTHERS!!!! GOD BLESS THAT RED HAIR!!!!!*
😂 Actually shut up like 🤦♂️
Im irish UwU so im lucky
Hae ... Ree You are the one! Chosen one! Just don't spill your boiling attraction on others, OK?
Amen! ❣️
Beautiful story, I love not only the story but their accent. It's so romantic.
Yesssss! Irish accents are just so attractive OMG...
Okay? Um, I didn't understand most of what was said, but yeah, beautiful story
Clearly never heard a guy from Sligo
@@RoyalCoyote it's clear I haven't. How they sound like?
It's funny haven't been in Ireland since 2003 but getting a couple of Guinness in me and the accent is like slicker than snot in the winter.
I just watched this incredible short film “lúbtha” and found myself crying uncontrollably as I sit here this Sunday morning in Los Angeles, CA. What a wonderful and powerful film. I was that boy growing up. My parents are Eastern European immigrants and they were not going to have a gay son either and they did their best to make me as miserable and doubtful of my human existence and feelings as possible. It was not till I was 25 years old that I would have my first open conversation about being gay with my mom on the phone as she phone me first to wish me a happy birthday and then followed by a direct question “are you one of those gay people?” To which I choked, felt all the air suck into my lungs, silence in the world, and I felt the revolution of the earth as it spun... I said yes... to which my ears were met with a shriek or a howl, some type of an incredible animalistic scream and joined by a “Why????????” Followed by a diatribe and a vicious monologue of how she had failed as a mother, spoiled me as a son, my father ruined me by being too weak and absent and how she was destroyed by her failings as a mother. After her selfish and self-absorbed rant was over, she hung up. That was 27 years ago. On April 21. Happy birthday to me. I was in my kitchen of the new apartment I had just moved into not one month earlier with my first boyfriend. Thank you for sharing this wonderful film with the world and thank you for showing me and other boys and girls out there who may be struggling with their own families resenting their sexuality or being made to feel less than or something less than normal. I wished I had RUclips or the web growing up. It was an incredibly lonely time to grow up gay. Lonely at school. Lonely at work. Lonely in life. I am so grateful for filmmakers such as you for telling these Incredibles powerful stories and for being a beacon or helpful guide for so many young gay boys and girls around the world. We are not abnormal. We are not less than. We are all going to be ok as long as we can get away from these deranged and confused people who are selfish and not caring of us as people as they are of themselves and how others will view them for having a gay son or daughter. My mom and father do not speak to me anymore. They gave up trying to change me and when they realized I was not going to get out of this “phase“ of dating men they just gave up. The clincher was last year when my mother said to my face that all gay people were “inherently evil“... I knew at that point that she was too far gone and that a meaningful relationship or any closeness would never be possible. My father is absent as he moved to Ecuador to get away from the America he fought so hard to escape to. I’ve not seen or heard from him in over 5 years. Thank you for sharing this with the world and happy new year to you and everyone involved with your films. Grateful for you and your passion for truth and impactful storytelling.
That's one incredible life story Phillip. I'm glad you were able to survive your upbringing, and hopefully find love.
You know what this movie needs?
Freaking subtitles
I thought it was fine 🤷♀️
Yes, please
Ikr
The autogenerated ones are hilarious and worthless.
Ok I'm Irish but even I can barely comprehend what the hell they're saying
Welcome to Ireland my friend 🗣️🇮🇪
I’m American but I can understand all except their names. I have no clue any of their names
@@s.a1011 - Not to worry, Under. What's in a name, anyway? A rose by any other name ... would smell as sweet.
Oh my god, I'm reading all these comments in an Irish accent ....
It's literally quite cute in my head 😍😂 and even my comment I read with an Irish accent as I'm typing this! Haha ...
Probably best I avoid any middle eastern LGBT short films. I hate aggressive voices in my head. Not that there'd be many of those so I'm quite safe I'm sure.
well...that's somewhat of a relief cause neither did I
It's hard for me to put into words how touching this short film was and how much I loved watching it. It was just so achingly beautiful. It didn't shy away from dealing with intense themes yet there was this sense of delicateness which the film evoked, particularly during the ending. It was really moving, poignant yet heart-warming at the same time and from the other comments on this video, it is clear that it resonated in a similar manner with many other people as well. Thank you so much for creating this astounding masterpiece!
We are so happy that you enjoyed it!
I don’t know if anyone else has already mentioned it but the actors are amazing! Every single one of them felt believable and genuine and they show so many emotions. Also the couple has a really good chemistry! So congrats to the cast and director for creating a masterpiece. And thank you so much for making it! I love it!
“I just want to be normal.. for one night”
Great, now I’m crying
*swearing in front of little brother*
me: wait, thats illegal
You must not be living in Ireland my friend
That is normal
Wow I think u missed the entire point of the video
That kiss was everything! Great acting! Finton reacting to his mother as she spewed her venom was "silent acting" at its best!
As someone that's Irish ita interesting to see how everyone's reacting to the accent
Brian Not Young K ikr it’s so funny
1:50 what in the hell did he say here 😭
we love it
Pahlay wodda flap may leets ta wahs the way that it was.... duh ... @@cocoapuff_x
their English sounds like another language to me
Someone that isn't Irish: so how are you doing?
Irish person: *AWW IM GRAND HIGH WHATS A CRAIC*
@Jackson in Chicago, USA ní Gaeilge í, is Béarla é
That's Irish accent for you.
It’s Irish english
"lying in bed, lights off then starts crying quietly"
It struck me of seeing myself in that part over 20 years of that slow painful seems like a torture feeling of loneliness. He's so lucky and i envy them
That red head guy is gorgeous!
Definitely!!!
Brian Keith Null his hair, eyebrows, his eyes, his eyelashes, his nose, his lips, his lips... all his facial expressions... just WOW.
I know right?!! And he has that super rare red hair, blue eyes combination as well! There's just something about redheaded guys that make me swoon 😍
@@thepuppynews ...
@@gavinmccune93 3:22 And the dimples - don't forget the dimples. Carry on.
Personal hurtful/painful memories from abusive mother (step-dad) brought back after watching this film. I for one would be proud/honored to have a guy like Fintan (Oliver Scullion) in my life. He's a right handsome lad. Good job Oliver. Well acted.
All my favourite lines;
“Are you mad because I ate all the toast?”
“Are you gay?”
“Put that shitty stick down and start walking!”
you like the marauders?!? same!
@@urfavmiamia yes I do 😘
Really good work! But like a lot of short films it feels like only a small portion of a potentially much larger story. I'd love to see how things turn out for Fintan. Did he end up leaving his home? Did Caelan go with him? So much to tell.... Still, this is a pretty powerful piece. Congrats on all involved!!
Don't worry - we feel the exact same way. This was an extremely low budget, crew and cast production. We were not expecting any of this at all, and we're hoping to push it forward and go for a feature! Follow us on Twitter or Facebook to stay in the know!
@@AnyOther.Productions how can we fine the beautiful music used for the film? Enjoyed it as well as the movie.
I made my own ending. The abusive mother got into some serious trouble, ran away, and left her 2 children behind. Fintan took care of his brother until a relative took him away to live with them. Fintan moved in with his friend.
Eventually, they both got jobs, moved into an apt together and Fintan brought his brother back home with him.
Hola
I actually think it needs a lot more backstory instead -- I think their kiss is actually a great ending. It just needs more story about their lives and their friendship before this one day. That would be the full-length movie I'd want to see.
AYO THATS IT??? NAH I NEED A WHOLE SERIES ON THESE TWO I FELL IN LOVE WTF 🥺🥺
Thank you for a short that has a more positive and happy theme. I was really worried when I realized the era in which it was set, but instead of going the typical depressing route you did the opposite. Not that everything was portrayed as completely happy, there were obviously still obstacles to deal with, it was just left on a positive note where you could believe that ultimately it was going to be OK. So, thanks for that.
The accent is not bad at all I am not a native english speaker and I understand hin just fine
Same
The actor of the best friend showed some amazing talent. Definitely the strongest of the cast. I hope he continued with his acting.
That red haired guy's mother isn't exactly 'mother of the year'. As I finish the story in my mind, he runs away and the guy with the dark hair follows, and Ms. Murphey is ok with it.
"I just wanna be normal...just one night...."! Boy youre normal!
I can totally understand what that means and how heartfelt it is. Straight people don't get it they don't get how even today from the law enforcement and every other thing for us who are gay it seems like in every avenue of being it's okay for men and women to have these places where they can meet up and find each other. But for us especially in the town I am in right now it's petty larceny to try and do the same because it's sexual prowling like in the same way as the people who are doing like the hookers and their cohorts. Always shutting down the avenues for us to meet new people and see if they're compatible.
Random Artist could you explain how it isn’t normal to want a form of sex? because i’m a little confused...
kouya rose because sex is made for a male and a female. It’s also made for making children which only men and female can do. Women and women have different reproduction systems and parts for a reason. A man isn’t designed to have sex with another man and a woman isn’t designed to have sex with another woman.
kouya rose and nothing is meant to go up your butt. Only out. It can hurt really bad and that’s not what the anus is designed for.
Random Artist sex isn’t necessarily made for a specific pair. sex is an act, not a ritual between man and woman specifically. yes, sex is used to reproduce. but sex is also for personal pleasure and can be bent to fit your needs/wants. a man taking it up the ass is just as normal as hetero, vanilla sex. and i’m not sure who told you nothing is supposed to go up your rear but... there are literal doctors probing a different mans rectum every day to make sure everything is healthy. if anal wasn’t safe, doctors would be warning people of it, not telling them to simply wrap it up. :/
This is the first time I've seen someone with my body type in a gay-themed film (the main character's love interest). And it's awesome.
I LOVED THIS! I wanted it to be longer!
Great film...I really enjoyed it!! Please check out the trailer to my upcoming film and please subscribe to my channel. Thank you

He's literally just a skinny dude, what are you talking about?
A lot of us come from situations like this, so sweet! Thank you.
A truly well done video that makes you want to see how it turns out for the two main characters.
Bitter sweet and soooo beautiful! Gratitude to everyone for their extraordinary parts in the making of this film!
That homophobia gave me the feels. It’s personal. I wasn’t spit on but, I’ve had my heart broken being myself (Bi & Queer). That was painful to watch.
How can you be bi and queer 👀
@@Jordan_Dossou bi is included in queer I suppose
'Queer' is a slur, don't use it.
it’s short films like these that just make me wanna escape from my small home town as soon as i’m old enough and just romanticise my life
Some short film suck but this was pure perfection;-; I need more
wonderfully important to express these stories. LOVE IT! I know that it makes a difference to so many who are still being abused for NO REASON except ignorant and SELFISH reasons
We are happy that you enjoyed lúbtha!
It was much the same in the 60’s. A problem That most young men have to face “why me” but you have get use to life, that’s life.
This is so painful when your mum tells you that her child cannot be gay, just because I was raised as a normal kid. These words hurt.
Well done. Just the basic story, leaving the rest for us to finish in our minds. Oliver Scullion is wonderful, especially how he handles anger along with vulnerability -- I hope we get to see more of him in future films!
That “teenager” looks like a very grown man.
Edit: how old is he anyways? 30?
he's apparently "18-24"
Leo lol says where
@@fhpurcell7713 mandy.com
Leo oh thanks
Yes I know he looks like 42 years old.
Anyone else here Irish ?🇮🇪

I’m from Ireland so anytime I see something from Ireland I have to click on it because it’s such a breath of fresh air to hear some Irish accents and some Irish slang and things like that
It is troubling to watch but can relate in so many ways. Thanks for sharing the story with the world. I look forward to other videos.
Cool kiss to start their life...It maybe hard but they can start their life together...
WhY dO i sEe YoU everywhere
Really well written and acted. Best quality short I’ve seen in a while.
I actually held off from watching this for ages and now I'm annoyed with myself I did ... this was lovely 😍 ... good story, good acting and actors, good cinematography. Well, I should say great to all of those, not good. Awesome work Ethan and Lucy and everyone involved 👬❤️
Ok so I hear a lot of people saying they can’t understand what they’re saying and I am purely American. I can understand it just fine. Y’all just gotta do a bit of acting and you’ll understand everything.
I'm Scottish and I'm surprised at how similar our accents are!!!
1:40 most sibling thing I’ve ever seen... fix your bro up but smack him in the process lol
this was insanely good!! it reminded me of the type of fics i would read on ao3. the story is just incredible! this is one of my favorite short films it is so beautiful!!
One misses a fair amount of the dialogue because of the Irish accent but the film still manages to come across: rather moving, with a touch of humour and great charm and, for all the depressing circumstance, without whining or sentimentality. The world of the film may be small but it's perfectly real.
That mother was brilliantly tough.
The Irish accent is so hot, but I prefer the Dublin accent.
Petropavlovsk Kamchatskiy Dublin is an Irish accent. Their accents are from further north.
That "inspire by true events" gets to me. I remember growing up in the 80's and 90's never realizing the troubles half a world away.
Brilliant little film, very poignant and deep, so love the Irish accent its a music all of its own. Excellently done!
The main actor is WAY too old to be in high School
Why is the guy playing the redhead "teenager" look like he's 30 to 34? It takes me right out of the story when he looks 5 years to nearly a decade older than his peers/classmates. He's a wonderful performer, but when I'm 30 and look younger it makes me giggle. 😆😉 🚬 lol
Fintan is just about the most gingery ginger I’ve ever seen. If he went anywhere that has sunshine, he’d better stay in the shade the whole time. He’d burn within minutes, bless him.
I was involved from beginning to end so I'd say it was great! I almost wish it gave a "he's gonna get away from his shite mother" ending but this was fine.
Really really enjoyed this. Beautifully acted ....would love to see more!
What an amazing film, well done!
Great film and what an excellent actor Geraldine Galligan. She is amazing in this.
When I was 24 in Edinburgh in 2000 I met a guy at work who i became friends with . He was 18. He ended up staying at my flat all the time for about 2 half years until he joined the RAF. We went on holiday together a few times slept in the same bedroom and talked about girls wanking ect. He continued being my best mate for about a year after he joined the airforce. I introduced him to a girl I had met at a party that I barely knew. BAM 💥 end of our friendship. He literally changed overnight. He wasn’t like the guy I had known before, and I was dropped out of his life . I chased him up on texts ect for a long time and eventually he said let’s go out separate ways . That was 18 years ago this dec 2023. I’ve still not got over him. I eventually Came out in 2017 and I’m happy now . Looking back he wasn’t totally straight, we never did anything but the stuff he said implied more. I have since learned he has two sons and a wife of 9 years. Hello John from Mayfield in Dalkeith!! I really think he was going straight to please his parents and family. Obviously I will never know that really but he was from a very working class family who expected all the norms , luckily my parents were and are open minded.
Hope you find someone to love mate. Best of luck in your life
@@mxsthxted Thanks a lot for your comment on my rant 😂. Here in jan 2024 i’m with a lovely guy a met in 2017 and living my best life finally. ❤️
2017 not 2007 😂 i met my partner
@@67psych thats good. i hope your relationship blossoms :))
Ethan McDowell’s “lubtha” is heavy on the coarse demeaning transactions in the family life of teenage schoolboy Fintan (sharply played by Oliver Scullion). Only school friend Caelan (Conor Gormally) offers a less abrasive comity. The ending proposes a better future, but if the entry to that future is only gained by first consuming copious amounts of alcohol, we can only hope that both boys survive and live to see it.
Copious? Please, they had a few shots. I'm 53. I came of age in the gay bars in the 80s. It was the only place we had to meet each other, there was no internet. For many of us, we learned to hold our booze because you can't sit there in a bar for hours unless you are spending money, yet to meet people "like you', you had to be in the bar. So you drank and you learned to control it. Many people didn't though, it became a way to escape from facing who they were. I forget where I was going with this. Something about booze. And gay men. Sigh. I'm distracted. But you get my point. If the sex ain't good at least you got the booze to fall back on. Or vice versa.
@@adamantsun I get your point. (And I also got your unedited post. ps your secret is safe with me) My point was that alcohol is not a reliable doorway to self-acceptance; to the contrary, those uninhibited by booze eventually wake up to sober truths, recrimination & retreat: rinse, repeat. (I’ll spare you my story; I don’t seek a bragging rights contest of voluntarily disclosed self-abuse.) Perhaps we’re making the same point after all.
Loving the actors, well portrayed. And accent? God! Hahaha
Gold standard of acting in a short film.
Irish accent beautiful and easy to understand for native English speakers (I was born in NYC), just have to be still and listen. Great acting...very authentic scenario. Blessings be....
Pickle & Co. Productions! I´m going to see more of you! Thanks!
We have a lot of stuff in the works. Make sure to follow us over on Facebook too - link in the description.
Love the lighting! I know you shot in tight spaces in houses but you really should try for more wide shots especially in the opening. Really well done!
Bruh why is everyone in the comments roasting his and his mom 😭
Gay Irish Men are just too adorable.
From everyone at Pickle & Co, we want to thank you all for your support and love over the last few months. We have just launched our second short film online! If you fancy it, you can click here to watch: ruclips.net/video/StSyZUP0cYc/видео.html

its yet to come. A taylor and captain M will release music soon
harvey losito oh no :( ive been searching for an hour before I saw thsi comment. Keep me posted please
Loved the lyrics!!! Credits mentioned the name Worse Generation but I couldn't find anything including a title :'(
Looking for the song as well T-T count me in guys
Gosh, why are Irish movies always so dark and heavy! This is a good one, wow!
Well acted. I think it especially touches a nerve with anyone who grew up in an abusive home, whether physically or emotionally abusive.
That was so depressing. Why can’t we just remove normal from the lexicon?
GrotrianSeiler Normal is just what the majority of a peoples do. It’s used to describe the predictable and expected. That’s why normal will ALWAYS exist. But that doesn’t mean that what is normal right now will always be. What is normal changes everyday, little by little, just as people change. So it could be that being gay and openly holding hands with your same-sex partner will be very normal in a decade from now. Here’s hoping!🤞🏼Cheers!🍻
Even if there's no word to say it, you can still feel abnormal by the way people interact with you. I think it is good to have a word to express that feeling.
I use the word "NATURAL" to describe myself and my feelings, attractions and sexuality. It has nothing to do with "NORMAL" that is a collective word...what the majority feels, thinks, and does. "NATURAL" is a personal word. Each of us live and love based on who we are individually, not collectively. "Conformity (normal), is human, but diversity is divine." We were created to be different, individual, diverse...uniquely ourselves.
