Today, a gay first love story.

Nothing new here but we are never tired of hearing these tales of first awakening.

A escondido / Hidden Away (2014)

I have seen this before.

One boy is Moroccan which throws a twist to the plot. He is on the run, an illegal. The part that is hidden. Well, their relationship is hidden too.

This is a good movie with a lot of nice moments and some scary ones.

It is realistic about the young men's situation. No fantasy here.

Hard times.

There is no fat in this quickly moving story but there is time enough for some sweet moments between the guys.

Since I have seen it before and enjoyed it every time, it gets a 5 on the Netflix scale. Not because it is in the film pantheon but because it deserves to be seen and seen again.
