A family tragedy forces Alberto to come back to his oppressive hometown in Spain from Berlin, where he has a free live working as comic illustrator. A story of gay romance.
My only child was scared and came out to me at the age of 13. What did I do about it? I gave him (and still do) more love than he will ever need. Support and be there for your children.
My story took a different turn than Luis. At 13, I was disposed of by my parents for not being "the man" I was expected to be. The streets were tougher than I could ever describe, and sleeping outdoors in the dead of winter really brought home what I no longer could count on...a home. I, like Luis, was tormented until my departure. I had to learn how to fight and win, and despite my aversion to violence, I earned their silence. I could have easily been Luis, but fate had other ideas. Too many young men and women are "sacrificed" for just being who they were born to be; just because their family and friends cannot see past their horrendously violating prejudices. My heart is in anguish watching this film. My eyes are bloodshot. I wish if I could, I could rescue some kid from enduring this, just as Alberto had wished he had done for Luis. This might all sound melodramatic, but it was and is my reality, and the reality of so many that can no longer speak their truths. If I could ask God for anything, it would be to shed the truth upon those that thrust hate on others in the name of "love". To whomever made this film, you made something important. Thank you for sharing with the world.
you had it really tough. Unimaginable. To do that to a young son is the cruelest act. I feel anger at reading your story. I don't hang out on TikTok but but i've visited. To see to the freedom of the young men and women is heartwarming. Things have changed some. I came out in the late 60's. Then compared to now shows the bravery of these young men. I wish all the best for you in your life.
I can see you had a very difficult upbringing, and I'm so very sorry to hear about it. I think that it has made you into the man you are, with a great capacity for love. I wish you all the love you can fit into your life.
Thank you for telling this story. My story was similar, sent to many counselors who tried to change me, but then I chose a non-christian counselor who told me, "You can't change who you are. All I can do is help you to accept yourself." I lost the love of my family, friends and church; but I made new friends, and found family isn't always by blood and finally, God isn't in many churches.
An excellent film. A realistic script with strong performances from everyone in the cast. The settings were well done too: the oppressive darkness of his home in the village contrasted with the light of the Berlin flat. The cartoon finish was a clever idea which showed how an artist could resolve the intense pain of this loss. That rings true too.
I’ll be crying the rest of the day. Almost 40 years ago, also at the age of 16, I too was feeling like Luis. I thought there was no way out. I came close but I’m still here. Somehow. I’m grateful but i think of those kids who never see the light. 🙏
same here. i remember when i told my mom about my suicide attempt. it was scarier than coming out. and of course, she thought it was about a guy, rather than about me not wanting to be me.
Please do not end your life due to your sexuality. Have courage and make a change whenever you are able to do so. Move away from your family and start living the life you want to live. There are decent people out there who will help you along the way.
WOW 😭😭 ufffff, this one hits home for me!!! I wish there were more parents that are understanding towards their kids and how to love them unconditionally even if it doesn’t align with your believes, always remember that your child IS a gift that life gave you to love no matter what. They are an extension of you and if you hurt them you are hurting yourself and if they are hurt you get hurt 😢
When I was 12 yrs old I started to like boys. I didn't afraid about that feelings. I just let be that feeling one side & told to myself don't come any conclusion about it. When I was 16yrs old I got clear cut mind set that study & become man of being independent by economically & not veryone need to know about my Gay feeling. Still I didn't opened to all including my family. Why they have to know about my gay feeling. It's my personal & privacy matter. I very much happy to took that decision in that 16yrs old. Now I am 38. Having great life. Books helped me to gain experience & history about homophobia things in past history. That helped me to take right decision in that age without discussing with any one. Thanks lot to books.
I can relate to this story and everyone who has gone through it. Being gay is very difficult in a world filled with hate. I hope that this story helps others understand how lonely it can be to be gay. I can only speak for myself as a gay man and how hard it is to exist in a world of prejudice. We can only look within our selfs for strength and hope for a better world without hate.
This is a sensitive film about the reality that gay people face when trying to be themselves. I remember pacing my room all night one time trying to build the courage to tell my parents I was gay. It's probably good that I didn't because way back then a therapist might, or probably would have tried to change me. Thanks for this film.
Even before seeing other comments "beautiful" is and was the word to describe this... Many of us have full on understanding and yet are not living fully... Thank God the world is slowly changing. And thanks to the creators of this story for sharing.
I must admit I don't get the sort of circular plot in it: reminds me of a short story by an Argentine author, Julio Cortázar ("Continuidad de los Parques"). So, Idk whether the elder brother managed to act on time to save the younger one, or he was actually the one who took his life years earlier and inspired the younger to avoid taking his. Anyway, a good film.
I'm a lucky guy, all my family acepted me and my boyfriend for 26 years; e was considered as a member of our family and his mother acepted me as her son as well. He died at 58 yh in 2003 and all my family missed him very much. God bless my family.
Excelente roteiro.. fotografia.. música e interpretação! Que o filme ajude derrubar todos os preconceitos sobre o argumento! Liberdade e amor para todos!
19:28 - Esta música se llama "Pavana para una infanta difunta", obra del compositor francés Maurice Ravel (1875-1937). Escrita en 1899 mientras Ravel estudiaba composición con Gabriel Fauré en el Conservatorio de París. la Pavane evoca la danza de una Fante en la corte de España : "... una pavana que habría podido bailar tal princesita, antaño en la corte de España".
What a tragedy of lost possibilities! What stuck in my mind was when Alberto said "He'll never have anyone to love him". I hope that in 2022, even in a small town, that this doesn't happen anymore. Talk about saving our children!!!
Always a question of religion. So sadly, people are jealous and envios of guys loving guys instead of being proud to get love theit own way. Very nice and beautiful video. Thank so much. Remain proud! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Wow. Umm. This is without doubt one of the best short films I’ve ever seen. Incredible. Thank you to all involved in producing it. Just beautiful. Amazing stuff. This really moved me. Especially the animation at the end. Bravo. Craig - Australia
Excelente. Yo en la escuela pase por lo mismo siempre solo. Pero lo supere. Siempre he estado solo pero me siento muy bien. Hay que buscar la felicidad sin hacer daño a nadie.
Great movie, beautifull and real story.......it could be fantastic to have a bro wich protects and teaches to you to be strong and patient, so you'll can live your life as you wish.... the final illustrations are a masterpiece ❤
Para mi fue' muy dificil de aceptarmre. Gustaba a las chicas. Però un dia viendome a l'especo decidi de vivir mi vida como me gustaba y ahora que soy mayor estoy contento de mi decisione. Hay muchos chicos que sufren tambien hoy especialmente si tu vives en un pequeno pueblo. 💖🙏
Maravilhoso! Ótimo roteiro, que lida com sensibilidade com a temática da não aceitação social; Direção cuidadosa e trabalha com habilidade com os atores e a animação. Ótimos atores, que vão fundo nos seus personagens. Amei!!!!
If big brother had been honest with his family, and said F you to his parents, then his brother would have had someone to talk with..... someone that he loved and respected, and someone who could have helped li'l bro get through it all. Just my take. I have been there. I just don't know why grown men can't be honest with their parents.... who cares what they think??????? (I paused the video at the very end, to write this thought, then finished it.... and saw that the big bro realized that now). But, my thoughts still ring so true about parents. If they are ashamed of you, then just move on. Their loss.
Sad but hopeful.... Time is changing we can be there for our younger ones... We can give them our hand to get through this... Every life is worth living.
I was a little bit disappointed at the beginning but as I finish I see that story is strong hard punch to swallow. A reality that many people live in the small towns or in Lan America.
Beautiful movie, unfortunately depicting a too much known story in the life of many amongst us. I wish this could be shown to school, and stop the cruelties against young men/women discovering homosexuality.
This wonderful sad emotional movie is a must view for all Gay people...My early years flashed before me and I cried so bloody hard such an emotional roller coaster my love respect goes to the writer and the actors are so real in their portrayal of the characters........Brillant movie.
Me he derrumbado, ante tanta tristeza,nosotros hemos sufrido,el "Bulling" ; el desprecio , pro hay quien nunca nos abandona, y siempre está a nuestro lado Dios!
Such a beautiful film about love, compassion and understanding. No one should EVER be in the closet for the one they love....the truth shall set you free. ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Very sad but at the same time very true...my high school time in a catholic college in Buenos Aires at the '80s was a real hell...I still remember that days and can't stop my tears fall down
i cried my eyes out!, the weird thing is that this happens in real life parents trying to change their kids because of their sexuality. Its crazy to think about it my parents were very open about it and always told us its okay if you love same sex but explore what you wanna explore but don't lie about it as long as you are happy we are happy!. and i'm always thankful for my parents! ❤
*Una historia subreal, por que siempre de alguna manera los catalogaran y existirán estereotipos como el cuento de Luis hermano menor que sufrio buling tanto en casa por sus padres como em el colegio pero eso si encontro y conocio a un profesor de ingles MUY GUAPO o sea XD cosa que en la vida real no precosamente es asi ppr eso me quedo debiendo siempre fijandose hasta entr los GAYS y comunidad LGTB lo fisico de que tiene que estar hermosp y buenisimo para terminar y aceptar ser homosexual la verdad hasta en eso pecamos de soverbios y perfeccionistas ya que eso no es Amor es atraccion y la belleza se acaba y el amor verdadero nunca es lo que prevalece luchar por ser felices sea quien sea.*
@@felipeps5 Me too! I'm Italian, 45 years old, i live 70 km from Venice: in my region, the Veneto, there are there are many males, the vast majority, who have feelings towards other males, but they are all repressed, they hate themselves and angrily reject anyone who shows some certain "visibility". We live in a closed society, deeply bigoted (but for this very reason anything but Truly Christian), economically wealthy if not rich, but mentally dull, and where the so-called "heteronormativity" is very powerful, rampant, and master of the lifestyle and of general language. Here revealing one's "same-sex" affective preferences means a very heavy social ostracism. Yet my immigrant friends tell me how many times, many times, they have been approached by fathers, married or engaged men (with a woman), my fellow citizens, my fellow countrymen, who were looking for sex with them. And the friendship sites "He seeks Him", multiply exponentially, and are full of males looking for the tenderness of another male. And they are 99% young and old men, in their thirties-forties and over-seventies, certainly homophobic by day and among relatives, colleagues, friends, acquaintances, but after sunset, in front of the PC screen, they look for daring videos of males + males, and looking for "friends". In secret, and in shame. In the USA things will certainly have changed a lot, in my beloved Italy, and in my beloved region, Veneto, everything remains as it was 60-70-80 years ago. You live your affections, your desires, in silence, and in pain, beware that no one knows, that no one can even think that ...
, hello, I'm 42 years old, from a medium size city of Colombia, and also have the same situation, I'm alone and in the closet, with homophobic fathers, Friends and society, all for the religion and double moral, but at least the things are changing for next générations and there Is a small process of éducation for respect about différences. I hope that some day I could find true love and Wish You the same.
And they do. Things do get better as you get older. It's a process. Personally, I came to some conclusions and they helped me enormously. First, it took me a few years to accept my sexuality. Once I did, I made it a non-issue. Basically, I don't hide it, nor do I flaunt it. It's merely a small part of who I am. Ultimately, I came to terms with my sexuality when I realised it was not one of my defining features. There's far more to my character than my sexuality. All I can do is be myself. After all, why would I want to be someone else? I would be incapable.
Everything about this short film is great from the lighting to the acting. This short film draws you in and grab's you. Therefor making the story telling so strong and captivating. The sad truth is I am Alberto Brother....... as many of you watching this are. I can not tell you days I torcher myself. Wanting something I could not have, love of another man. With out happiness or family in your life why live it. I now have love but no family so I did not win. I know things are changing and have changed so much, but my fear in Canada is we are going backwards not forward.
So sad and yet so real ... many will see this hopefully the young, if only to realise happiness can still very much be found at the end of the rainbow ... if only you believe in yourself...even forgiveness of those that didn't understand!
This may sound weird to some but when I was 14 and was trying to decide between chemicals & razorblades, my biggest concern was for my sister Gabrielle and what it would do to her. That is why I feel so much worse for Alberto since, as the surviving sibling, will have to go through life going over every combination of "What if"
My only child was scared and came out to me at the age of 13. What did I do about it? I gave him (and still do) more love than he will ever need. Support and be there for your children.
Your son is very lucky and blessed to have you as his parent.
Wish all parents were like you.

You are stronger then you think.
It s obvious that you are a survivor and an overcomer.
God Bless you
I can see you had a very difficult upbringing, and I'm so very sorry to hear about it. I think that it has made you into the man you are, with a great capacity for love. I wish you all the love you can fit into your life.

i already stay in the closet for 4 decades and will be like that just for everyone happiness😢

A story that must continue to be told. It's real and everyone should know this.
A story that had to be told, where love, compassion and understanding was needed. thank you for this honest and sad film.
We, LGBTQ, people have all been through this. Thank you for this film
Very true...unfortunately is a cruel reality even more in countries like mine: Argentina
When I was 12 yrs old I started to like boys. I didn't afraid about that feelings. I just let be that feeling one side & told to myself don't come any conclusion about it.

A sad truth. If we just didn't care what other people think, so many young people would still be alive today! Beautifully told story.
My heart hurts again and again every time I watch this excellent movie. Cruel, cruel world!

My father would certainly have tried to change me.

The perfect story, great cast, and an impeccable production and acting. Hey director, go straight to Hollywood!!!
Qué gran trabajo, y que triste realidad en muchos lugares y familias, no sólo en pueblos, me gustaría que hicieran una película o serie sobre esto.
Very well acted. Always amazes me the stellar performances by these actors in these short films.
It’s because they’re real actors and not conceited, Hollywood types.
I must admit I don't get the sort of circular plot in it: reminds me of a short story by an Argentine author, Julio Cortázar ("Continuidad de los Parques").

A beautiful and very real short film. Very familiar situation with families around the world. May love reign over hate and prejudice. ❤❤❤
Always a question of religion.
So sadly, people are jealous and envios of guys loving guys instead of being proud to get love theit own way.
Very nice and beautiful video.
Thank so much.

This is why it’s important for gay youths to speak to a counselor/therapist to help accept themselves even if other people/parents don’t.
Excelente. Yo en la escuela pase por lo mismo siempre solo. Pero lo supere. Siempre he estado solo pero me siento muy bien. Hay que buscar la felicidad sin hacer daño a nadie.
Very moving and bit shocking. The amination was an added plus. Peace unto the many Luis's out there.
Actually outstanding. Far more meaning and message than I expected.
Great movie, beautifull and real story.......it could be fantastic to have a bro wich protects and teaches to you to be strong and patient, so you'll can live your life as you wish.... the final illustrations are a masterpiece ❤

A very moving film and the part of Alberto beautifully acted by Álvaro de Juan.
Très beau et très touchant court métrage. Belle idée pour le petit film d'animation de la fin. Bravo à vous.

...a beautiful but sad story of life, that is hard to endure when you stand in the middle of the storm...

I love this film.. It's very heart touching.
Aww this is so overwhelming. What a beautiful piece of art. Live and let live please.
Beautiful movie, unfortunately depicting a too much known story in the life of many amongst us. I wish this could be shown to school, and stop the cruelties against young men/women discovering homosexuality.
Que trabajo mas fantastico!!!!
Wow, what a poignant, but very, very sad film. Hopefully the tolerance of society towards gays will continue to grow.
Genial cortometraje. Triste y real.
I was a battered child and made to believe homosexuality is a curse. My father was an idiot. But when he was dying, I alone was there for him.
This wonderful sad emotional movie is a must view for all Gay people...My early years flashed before me and I cried so bloody hard such an emotional roller coaster my love respect goes to the writer and the actors are so real in their portrayal of the characters........Brillant movie.
Absolutely beautiful. From my heart, thank you !
Your welcome
A great story with a sad part caused by non understanding family. How many more teenagers come to grief like this.
ESTA ES LA REALIDAD DE LO QUE SUCEDE EN EL MUNDO,,SOMOS DISCRIMINADOS ,PERSEGUIDOS,Y BURLADOS,Y PEOR NO TENEMOS EL APOYO DE LA FAMILIA!!!!
Yo te quiero
Que buena película. Que historia mas tragica
Beautiful story! Terrific film. Excellent acting, script, and production values. Make more films.
Oh god. It's been a while since I tore up watching a film. This is...poignant, and that's just the best adjective I can find. Thank you for this gift!
What an excllent film. Sure wish it were longer. The time passed so quickly.
I'm confused....
...what happened at the end?... did the brothers switch places or something?.. :/
Me he derrumbado, ante tanta tristeza,nosotros hemos sufrido,el "Bulling" ; el desprecio , pro hay quien nunca nos abandona, y siempre está a nuestro lado Dios!
Muy buen mensaje, recuerdo lo difícil que fue ser yo.
Very well done and touching story great acting. thanks for posting.
Very well acted short film with a good message. Treat everyone with respect and love.
Stunning... I had so many tears
Hi
Me too Nico.
A heartbreaker but very real
ESTA pelicula es de lo mas bello toda la comunidad gay joven pasamos pot Esto pero Sean fuertes y es la Unica forma de poder enfrentar la vida
Rather a nice touch to use Ravel's "Pavane pour une infante défunte" at the end.
no words how beautiful this movie is🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
tremendous film. And the animation (with the beautiful music) at the end made it even better.
Such a beautiful film about love, compassion and understanding. No one should EVER be in the closet for the one they love....the truth shall set you free. ♥️♥️♥️♥️
What a heartbreaking story, and a beautiful ending. 🌹
At the end is he dreaming about how Luis life would’ve been if he was there to help him ?
this is valid every day.....never forget
You are so right Nick
Excellent 👌! Muy Bueno!
Thank you!
Absolutely beautiful, thank you!!!
HERMOSA REALIZACIÓN...!!!
Muy bueno. Además tiene material para un largo
hermoso una de las historias mas verdadera que he visto
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 EXCELENTE!!! MUY EMOTIVA. Sólo me confundió un poco el final.
Very sad but at the same time very true...my high school time in a catholic college in Buenos Aires at the '80s was a real hell...I still remember that days and can't stop my tears fall down
i cried my eyes out!, the weird thing is that this happens in real life parents trying to change their kids because of their sexuality. Its crazy to think about it my parents were very open about it and always told us its okay if you love same sex but explore what you wanna explore but don't lie about it as long as you are happy we are happy!. and i'm always thankful for my parents! ❤
Muy buen corto, duro, pero muy bueno.
Todos hemos andado ese duro camino
Great actors 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Wow! Fantastic acting!
A really very touching story
*Una historia subreal, por que siempre de alguna manera los catalogaran y existirán estereotipos como el cuento de Luis hermano menor que sufrio buling tanto en casa por sus padres como em el colegio pero eso si encontro y conocio a un profesor de ingles MUY GUAPO o sea XD cosa que en la vida real no precosamente es asi ppr eso me quedo debiendo siempre fijandose hasta entr los GAYS y comunidad LGTB lo fisico de que tiene que estar hermosp y buenisimo para terminar y aceptar ser homosexual la verdad hasta en eso pecamos de soverbios y perfeccionistas ya que eso no es Amor es atraccion y la belleza se acaba y el amor verdadero nunca es lo que prevalece luchar por ser felices sea quien sea.*
A mí por eso que mencionas no me gusta el ambiente gay y he decidido quedarme solo por el resto de mis días.

You live your affections, your desires, in silence, and in pain, beware that no one knows, that no one can even think that ...
, hello, I'm 42 years old, from a medium size city of Colombia, and also have the same situation, I'm alone and in the closet, with homophobic fathers, Friends and society, all for the religion and double moral, but at least the things are changing for next générations and there Is a small process of éducation for respect about différences. I hope that some day I could find true love and Wish You the same.
Sad, beautiful, real.
great movie, super msg and ending with , pavane for a dead princess my compliments
And they do. Things do get better as you get older. It's a process. Personally, I came to some conclusions and they helped me enormously.
First, it took me a few years to accept my sexuality. Once I did, I made it a non-issue. Basically, I don't hide it, nor do I flaunt it. It's merely a small part of who I am.
Ultimately, I came to terms with my sexuality when I realised it was not one of my defining features. There's far more to my character than my sexuality.
All I can do is be myself. After all, why would I want to be someone else? I would be incapable.
Omg this story is so sad on so many levels. Why are people so cruel instead of loving and understanding.
Very nice and thank you for this video.

How utterly heartbreaking, Had the older brother been out, maybe the younger brother could have gotten his help and lived
falto amor de todos los familiares, especialmente la tuya! hermano!!...........
Damn! This hit home and it hit hard.
Everything about this short film is great from the lighting to the acting. This short film draws you in and grab's you. Therefor making the story telling so strong and captivating. The sad truth is I am Alberto Brother....... as many of you watching this are. I can not tell you days I torcher myself. Wanting something I could not have, love of another man. With out happiness or family in your life why live it. I now have love but no family so I did not win. I know things are changing and have changed so much, but my fear in Canada is we are going backwards not forward.
Beautiful, sad, but all too come occurrence
The ending is very confusing. I didn't know who was who anymore.
awesome movie
Excelente corto
So sad and yet so real ... many will see this hopefully the young, if only to realise happiness can still very much be found at the end of the rainbow ... if only you believe in yourself...even forgiveness of those that didn't understand!
This may sound weird to some but when I was 14 and was trying to decide between chemicals & razorblades,
my biggest concern was for my sister Gabrielle and what it would do to her. That is why I feel so much worse
for Alberto since, as the surviving sibling, will have to go through life going over every combination of "What if"
Beautiful ☺ family
Very good!
