Reviews
realistic coming of age story
Overall: this is a coming of age story with two high schoolers, 40 minutes on GagaOOLala and Vimeo.What I Liked
- gentle slice of life feel
- realistic, they look like highschoolers instead of photoshopped models
- symbolism of the seesaw and the two plants
Room For Improvement
- wish the ending was a bit less open/more explicit/what was in the box?
- what exactly was said at school, I think I know but I'm not sure what happened there
- the Vimeo subs are ghost subs, small and white font/difficult to read

A film that has something in it...
A film that has something in it that I can't exactly define from my inner perspective, gentle, light and essentially simple, about the beauty of life and individual moments, fragments of life that are not always completely clear. I perceive it not as a short film, it is exactly on the border (40 min), but as a feature film, which was also awarded at the Seoul International PRIDE Film Festival in 2021. I also appreciate that the guys were chosen realistically, they are not handsome guys from a poster and I don't mind the slightly open ending at all, on the contrary, I like the film and its mood ...Was this review helpful to you?
