I enjoyed this, mainly because it's not those LGBT sad ass movies where it's a sin to be gay! Like her mum seemed to be chilled when she told her and I loved the sound track!
@Naomi It's becaus Saffie said "I met someone" instead of "I (finally) made a new friend here." That first sentence is what you tell people when you've met someone you're interested in; the second is what you say when you've just made a friend who is only a friend.
You know Brazil ? Here there are beautiful cities, beaches, parks, finally, I'm from Recife, known as the Brazilian Venesa, and for having one of the best carnivals in the world :D
Anyway ... If you want to answer , answer , if you do not want to I will understand , because I am a girl and , maybe , I felt upset , or something like that ... Still , nice to meet ...
I want a sequel! This is one of my favorite LGBT short films. I love the music and outfits. That vintage nostalgia with the music, bluey bike, and the setting of the oldish beach cabins.
R u serious??!!?? Why this flim doesn't have more views and dozens of awards. It's just so aesthetically pleasing and the sound track, the story, the acting EVERY GODDAMN THING IS PERFECT!!!!!!
I love that it shows the awkward bits! That’s how real people talk and act, people aren’t perfect and things like these are awkward!! This is such a good film, well done :))
Liz left several clues that she was straight. Both just lacked the communication skills to tell things verbally which is normal at that age. The icecream girl understood everything since the beggining. Very good short story!
This film is basically the medicine for all of us who had a thing for our best friend in high school. We move on, and it takes time, but ugh. Loved this.
A nice little film characters that feel real. Touching without being corny. I like seeing little stories like that regardless of sexual preference or gender. Good one.
Literally a few seconds in.. I was like "this is totally Australian.. That's an Aussie looking neighbourhood for sure !" .... Then that accent. I love it. Way to go girls!
Stunning! The two main characters acted like young teenagers absolutly perfectly. And how fantastic was the script? I'm amazed how much more convincing this low- budget movie is than the over- hyped Hollywood block-busters. Love it.
this is one of my favourite short films, certainly my favourite lgbtq+ short film. i rewatch it every now and then and it makes me quite emotional. very well done!!!
wow. I have watched this short film about 3 (maybe 4?) times and it never gets old. The other day I was looking through youtube videos I had saved and this was on here, after rewatching it again it is still so amazing! The acting is so realistic, I live the characters and the slight plot twist at the end- just wow
I love how their names can literally be pronounced as Lez as in lesbian and Sapphi as in... sapphic. that was really creative and im glad i noticed that :D
@@jasmineglenn695 We all type in accents when we’re expressing that we’re ‘strayan ‘cos we have some unspoken pact to confuse the dingos out of the rest of the world.
That nervousness and awkwardness doesn't seem acting at all, everything was natural, beautiful movie ❤❤👏the ending I knew that gonna happen, make part 2
God her painting her nails red to impress Liz reminded me so much of when I was much younger. I was super into my best friend back in the 7th grade and I used to do stuff like that for her. She really liked the smell of lemongrass so I saved up for like 3 months just to get this super expensive lemongrass handcream for her and me to share
As soon as I saw the first beach scene, I was like "OMG this is Dromana where I grew up" ... I was boy back then lol. Great short film, well acted, I loved it and the memories it brought back.
UGH MY FAVORITE WLW SHORT FILM RN saw it a few months ago and it was on my recommended today so i decided to rewatch it and it’s just as good if not better than when i first watched it. might always be something i can keep rewatching over and over
This was so good ! The acting is on point and so are the filming and the editing! I could have watched a 90 minute version of this, it was so great!! Keep going
I liked this short a lot, especially the central performance and music. Also the awkardness between the characters is great as most of us when we were teenagers were like that. I would have liked some more scenes with girl from Ice Cream shop, it just felt like very tagged on to give Sapphire a happy ending. I think another longish scene between them would have been nice just to see their was a connection there. I'm fine with the ending with straight friend as it feels very realistic , they needed each other for that time and place but life just moves on and their friendship probably ends there. Great short.
Cam P. lmao trueeee but it makes it so realistic bc when i’m talking to some cute girl or a new person i meet i’m always like “that’s crazy!” idk i’m just awkward
A pleasure to encounter you on a long random train ride. I'm a member of the LGBTQ community... NB . It was great to realise what I'd thought and felt was 'different'... and been told so by lovers... and explained a lot of historical close friendships. I'm back to watch all your work soon... Every best wish, dear.
Oof, great cast!! I like how their colours help tell the story. Towel and deckchair with red stripes, their tops often match, whether in colour or style and only with Arie showing up, it changes (but the patterns still match: flowers). Untill the gettogether, where Liz wears something white, but Saffie stops at beige. Close, but not there. And a dark blue (saphire blue, haha!) at the end, where she's herself. And Liz still wears white. Also ties together with the favourite colour red. It just doesn't match with saphire blue. Would've loved if she visited the ice cream shop again at the end and said "Thanks, seems I'm not good with ice cream. Would take a coffe though." and the girl at the counter would smile at her. But the ending the movie had is also pretty good!
Lovely - very well executed. The actors are very good at what they do. Also, great music. I LOL'd when I found out that a band called Ritt Momney exists, for obvious reasons.
This reminds me so much of my first girlfriend. We were best friends for a really long time, and we went on vacation together to the OBX during the summer. We fell in love there and it lasted a while. Sadly It didn’t work out like I hoped, but I always get sad seeing summer aesthetics and these kind of short films because they reminder me of her.
we gay girls always let the straight girls go breaking our hearts sigh (also we lesbians have no game and probably won't go right up to someone we're into and talk to them first so yea, Liz is straight)
Literally heard “sapphic” when she first introduced herself jdhdhdh. But visually stunning, super realistic and tender, the music just somehow has this wlw vibe idk.
The acting is so good. The way everyone talks is so realistically awkward
For some reason Australians make things sound 10x more awkward then things really are
Yes
Yesh
Becca Poole the gaaaayyy silence
Love that
I knew ice cream girl was endgame the moment I saw her
Bro, same!!😊
Amani me too lol, the way she looked at sapphie says it all
same nil
mess wit me, u mess wit da whole trailer park ✌ lol💙💜
Same

Neilke Pretorius I hate to see teens being tortured and called “sinners” bit at the same time they are interestingly sad
Ma already knew
I’m simple. I see gay, I click.
Adi Arbiv sameee🤣
Me,everytime 💀
I know right
Adi Arbiv Sameeee
Agreed 🏳️🌈
I loved how the mother kinda figured it wasn't "just friends" in some way
Being a closeted lesbian, some moms just suspect somehow and ask that sort of thing when I get too close to a girl/sound really excited about her 😅
Mum magic
Yknow, just the usual mum stuff
@Naomi It's becaus Saffie said "I met someone" instead of "I (finally) made a new friend here." That first sentence is what you tell people when you've met someone you're interested in; the second is what you say when you've just made a friend who is only a friend.
@@poppy-spadessome moms or your mom?
I saw the girl on the bike at the beginning and had immediate flashbacks to the girls like girls music video
I thought I was the only one😂😁
I thought I was the only one😂😁
literally same my first thought was "why are lesbians always on bikes?"
MEEEE TOOOO even the scenery!!
Summer Ridings because we care about the environment duh
sapphire trying to explain the book plot honestly me
haha it made no sense
Sameee
"And then the girl mc does some stuff, am I boring you I'm sorry and then this guy dies-"
Lmao same XD
@@lulicacharlottescott9887 kkkk
This really captured the feeling of living in a little town- and hanging out, and basically being a lgbt teen. Really well done
I wish I lived in a small town the only people who live near me are old and gradually dieing
of course Sapphire is lesbian, her name is Sapphire. (steven universe reference)
Edit: wow, how many likes, thank you
How old is she??
And sappho
I mean,you're not wrong
Yess! I was thinking the same thing! :0
Anastasia Birca yeees
I like to think that ice cream girls favorite color is blue. Like a sapphire
(Wonderful acting and story telling btw)
😍😍
Why did I read this as 'ice cream girl's favorite flavor is blue ' 😭
when liz told her her favourite colour was red and she immediately painted her nails red
🥺🥺🥺 im soft
Why do I find it so funny that the bike fell?😂
Me too hahaha
Tilly Wilson 🤣🤣🤣y’all funny
SAME HAHAAHA
She didn't even look back for fuck's sake🤣🤣
You are You! Be different it is ok! People carry around to much trash. That is why they don't have more fun. Let it hang out. Cheers!
As soon as I saw Liz at the beginning I was like nope it's trap it's trap she straight
2718aj lol you are smart! I wasn’t.
2718aj 🙃 i don’t like liz neowww
I thought she looked and acted extremely straight but turned out gay anyway :c
Yeah it's actually like a stereotype now........I don't think it's cool
Same
when acting awkward doesnt seem like acting at all. good job!
Lol true
This is so realistic and wonderfully done! The filming, acting, writing, and editing is all phenomonal.
Hi, are you really into girls? I like it a lot ☺ Your eyes are very beautiful. I'm brazilian and you ?
You know Brazil ? Here there are beautiful cities, beaches, parks, finally, I'm from Recife, known as the Brazilian Venesa, and for having one of the best carnivals in the world :D
Anyway ... If you want to answer , answer , if you do not want to I will understand , because I am a girl and , maybe , I felt upset , or something like that ... Still , nice to meet ...

omg yes though I would love a sequel!!
R u serious??!!?? Why this flim doesn't have more views and dozens of awards. It's just so aesthetically pleasing and the sound track, the story, the acting EVERY GODDAMN THING IS PERFECT!!!!!!
The aesthetics of this are so gorgeous that it could only be a wlw film 😘
I love that it shows the awkward bits! That’s how real people talk and act, people aren’t perfect and things like these are awkward!! This is such a good film, well done :))
I had a feeling that her and the girl from the ice cream shop and get together instead because I can tell from the chemistry that they had.
Me too I notice the chemistry instantly tho short
I love how Saffie has more realistic features and characteristics, it makes it easier to connect to her and I really enjoyed the video :)
i think its spelled saphi, anyways i agree
i love this but did they really need two whole minutes of the bike ride
tea
yes
Mirandacorn28 YES
Mirandacorn28 YES

Liz left several clues that she was straight. Both just lacked the communication skills to tell things verbally which is normal at that age. The icecream girl understood everything since the beggining. Very good short story!
this is the best lgbt short film I've seen, so realistic
part two please!!!!! i have got to know what happens between sapphire and the ice cream girl and sapphire and liz!! :)
Sapphire's actress is really good, she has a strong presence on screen and her natural character comes through
This film is basically the medicine for all of us who had a thing for our best friend in high school. We move on, and it takes time, but ugh. Loved this.
I have a crush on my bestis
Can we just talk about how good the music is?!
And the artist name: Ritt Momney...LOLOLOL.....
I’ve watched many lgbt short films on here and this is really the only one that has good acting in it. Great job!!
Good movie 🍿 save friends yuppers 🙂🙂
A nice little film characters that feel real. Touching without being corny. I like seeing little stories like that regardless of sexual preference or gender. Good one.
I felt this so hard. I could really relate to the characters because of how amazing and real the acting was.
i think i’m in love with sapphie
Who isn't?
Me too
Me tf too
We all are
Who here isnt
Literally a few seconds in.. I was like "this is totally Australian.. That's an Aussie looking neighbourhood for sure !" .... Then that accent.
I love it. Way to go girls!
Good movie 🍿 save friends yuppers 🙂🙂
Stunning! The two main characters acted like young teenagers absolutly perfectly. And how fantastic was the script? I'm amazed how much more convincing this low- budget movie is than the over- hyped Hollywood block-busters. Love it.
I loved this! It’s different from other films I’ve seen, and I LOVED the cinematography.
Well done!!
i love this script. and it’s so eloquently spoken. it’s so refreshing
this is actually one of the best short films i have ever seen, absolutely beautiful!! you should be so proud!!!
Often sat back and asked “how’d they do that?” realized that it was through hard work. Amazing short film great great stuff!!
this is one of my favourite short films, certainly my favourite lgbtq+ short film. i rewatch it every now and then and it makes me quite emotional. very well done!!!
God!!! that was so good. Like so so good.
I'm gonna come out here and say that was the best lgbtq+ short film i've ever seen.

Damn....very good observation. Of course I noticed Sapphire/Sappho, but Liz/Lez totally escaped me.
Mate, the accents.
How can I have lived here my whole life and still love the accent so bloody much.
Erika
LMAO do all Australians type in a accent because if so that’s another reason to stan the Australians
@@jasmineglenn695 We all type in accents when we’re expressing that we’re ‘strayan ‘cos we have some unspoken pact to confuse the dingos out of the rest of the world.
Erika i’mma be honest i couldn’t read half of that but it’s probably cuz i’m a “dingo” as you would call it
@@erika6473 nice conversation
That nervousness and awkwardness doesn't seem acting at all, everything was natural, beautiful movie ❤❤👏the ending I knew that gonna happen, make part 2
I knew that ice cream girl was the one for Sapphire! Awesome film and the acting/writing was incredible!
Why do I feel like ice cream girl's name has to be Ruby
Awww, lovely, sad, and sweet. Thank you. Loved the scenery. Wanna swim there, too.

ok it's decided, lesbians own bikes and beaches. i don't make the rules
Agreed
Okay where's my beach then
@@madi- 😂
no, bisexuals own bikes (come on please this is like one of our best puns don't take it away from us)
@@puff3154 i apologize, i cant believe i didn’t even think about that before commenting. i hope you can forgive me 😭😭😤😤
This is one of the best short films I've ever seen. I love it.
I watched this while painting my kazoo rainbow
Spoopy wormy guy Loves kazoo i Stan
Kazoos are gay I spent 2 hours looking at cool kazoos to buy the other night
what is it with gays and kazoos
Literally Sapphire is so cute who wouldn't want to date her! My bisexuality is here for her! 😭
Great acting!!! I really loved this film ♡ hope i get to see more of your work.
I love how realistic this is, and the acting is so good aaa🥺

well directed!! and the acting of one who played sapphire actually has great potential
for a minute, I prayed the other girl's name was ruby just for the steven universe reference
nobody:
liz: that’s crAZY!
(nah im only joking this short film was so entertaining)
Cam P. lmao trueeee but it makes it so realistic bc when i’m talking to some cute girl or a new person i meet i’m always like “that’s crazy!” idk i’m just awkward

It feels like childhood. Memories coming up. I love it!😍
🥰
Man....MAKE A WHOLE NETFLIX SHOW ABOUT THIS.....
I was rooting for the ice cream shop girl the whole time thank you
this is so good it’s realistic but also aesthetic and pretty at the same time of that makes sense
the Sapphire girl looks a lot like the girl in the Water Lilies movie. Great job Darcy, like this movie.
ok but that brunett is really pretty especially her eyes ! x😍😍
Wow okay this was so sad :( but very beautifully done, amazing acting and cinematography xx

I love that sapphire is the name, it's so close to Sapphia, the OG lesbian. We stan
The acting in this was sooooo good especially sapphires acting A1 fam felt like I was submerged in a real girls life
Lovely - very well executed. The actors are very good at what they do. Also, great music. I LOL'd when I found out that a band called Ritt Momney exists, for obvious reasons.
Great acting, I love the atmosphere and the soundtrack is perfect!
Her: Saffie
Me: *s a p p h i c*
Yo, the dock moment, I felt that. I get so jealous if my best friend does so much as LOOK at someone.
I’m so glad this popped up on my recommended
The acting is so realistic! I’m in shock!
THIS. NEEDS. A. ACADEMY. AWARD
Sapphie trying to explain Cloudstreet is so me. The awkward convos are so realistic.
The way they talk is not cliche, a realistic conversations.
THIS WAS SO GOOOOOOOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this film is soo good ! i rly love it
The playlist is golden👀🥺good ass music💕🎶🎵
so is saphire a reffrence to sapho or saphic writting in general
Steven universe, the magic lesbian space rocks
i say all of he above, including the lesbian space rocks

So relatable to my childhood. Always alone feeling alone and watching my crushes obsess over boys😢
