Another coming out film, young adult anguish.

But good anguish.

It isn't so much that the guys here are upset about being gay. More that they are young and can't do a lot about their love in a repressive society.

Even that sounds worse than it is here.

Otra Pelicula de Amor / Another Movie About Love (2104)

Irony in the title but not in the story line.

This is just a nice little romance in Spain and the boys will get along very well. If not with each other, eventually, in the world. They surely have a good start.

A little magical realism never hurt anyone and there is enough in this film to make it just a bit beyond the norm of this kind of enterprise.

All gay stories are essentially coming out stories so there needs to be some salt and pepper to keep them seasoned well.
