- SYNOPSIS
A year. A boy. An instant.
Hugo is a boy who lives anchored in the routine, focused on his tasks and responsibilities. Unable to look forward, he lets opportunities pass, stalling in the past. On the contrary, Cosmo is a free soul that lives without looking back, always going from one place to another no matter where. One summer afternoon their gazes cross by chance. It is only an instant, but it will be the birth of a relationship that will make them stop for the first time to live the present.
An instant is a story about friendship, love and the importance of the small moments that endow our lives with meaning.

No hay nada que te marque tanto como la ilusión de lo que pudo ser y no fue. Esa historia idealizada se queda como tatuaje. Esa persona que se cruza en nuestro camino en un instante, un minuto antes de verlo simplemente no existía en nuestra memoria... Y luego decide continuar su camino dejándonos en ese tren que avanza inexorablemente con un pasajero ausente, y llegará a la última estación sin darse cuenta que pasaron otras estaciones, y nunca se levantó del asiento porque fue más placentero habitar esos instantes 😸
Esa primera frase "No hay nada que te marque tanto como la ilusión de lo que pudo ser y no fue.” Caló bien profundo en mi ser y es verdad la pregunta que todos nos hacemos es que pudo llegar a ser y no fue 😢
I read your words with translation but I didn't need translation to understand your feelings.
@@mattersthatmatter7990 Thank you 😊
"id rather have cavities than lung cancer" yess we stan health
hahahha
I wouldn't call cavities peak health but I can dig it 😂😂😂
@@adriaguxens I support you all the way through you have my support well done 👏
The way he kept calling him cosmo and then said nothing over the course of movie is something affection looks like
Yup!
After their last hug, he zipped his top. May be he wanted to keep Cosmo's heartbeat for his entire life
This is sooooo nice!!!! :D
Perfect observation.
Wooow!
I cried here with this observation!
😍
luris Hiliton or maybe he just felt a chill. I didn’t get the point of this movie. I guess sometimes they’re pointless.
@@Orlanzepol123 and there might be some ppl who can relate the whole movie . ;)
Thanks for this. It seems difficult for people to show stories like this. Where there's longing, and emotion, and just... something living beyond the typical 'gay story.' Nothing so obvious as a stolen kiss, but maybe a stolen glance or two. I loved this film. The casting was spot on, and everything about it spoke to me more than I'd have thought possible for something so small. Not all films have to be grand declarations or tragedies, and this one encapsulated that feeling perfectly.
So again, thank you for this.
Thanks for your really nice words! :)
What a beautiful film. There was definitely something there between them. I wanted Cosmo to go for it and kiss him. This could have been a full length movie, it strikes you right in the heart.
So beautiful words, my friend! :D
Patrick Silva Pues si lo besaba talvez no se iria pero Cosmo es un drifter, solo va de psaso...
In a very next future, you'll be a famous director. Thank you.
You are so sweet! ❤️
Amen 🙏
So True.. But please give more about this film🙏🏻
Por supuesto que será un gran director... eso se ve... tiene una sensibilidad exquisita!! Muchas felicidades y muchos éxitos por venir.. bravo!
Deja un resabio de tristeza y melancolía de aquello que pudo ser y no llegó a ser.
Tambien la ilusion de un eterno final feliz abortado por la indecisión de un momento.
La Vida misma, en los ojos, y el corazon de dos personas.
Nos deja la emocion contenida a flor de piel y la melancolía de lo que pudo ser.
Un viaje al interior del alma...
The film is good, captures my atention since the beginings, the actor’s personalities is quite different, the eye to eye is the principal form to do the atracction relation. A lot of art in this film. I hope to see more of you guys. Thank a lot.
Thanks for your nice words! :)
Deliciously ambiguous. Hugo so longs for Cosmo; blown away when he sees Cosmo shirtless. Cosmo likes Hugo, but we don’t see him eyeing the shirtless Hugo. The homoerotic subtext is just right - - a subtext.
Reminds me of a four-year relationship with a guy in college, a fraternity brother. I yearned for him. He liked me. We did non-sexual guy things together.
Like Cosmo, he graduated and moved on and I never saw him again.
But I cherish his memory. I wonder if he ever thinks of me.
This is SO nice. Thanks for your comment! :)
i was trying to word a compliment....scanned the comments, and thought your words were perfect. I loved this little film. So thanks to the fllm-makers and to you!
Wait now tell us the rest of the story please huhuhu I need thisss
The casting for the role of "still strikingly beautiful and charismatic alt/punk-guy, but who is also self-consciously getting too old to be that kind of guy anymore, but, then, what else is there for you to be in this world" is one of the best I've seen.
/cheers; love.
This is such a "wonderful unexpected flattering shouting to keep going" kind of answer. Thanks a lot! :DDD
Uau! You've left me kind of "flattered spechless so happy of listening such amazing words but incapable of answering in a such smart way to what he was just told".
Thanks! ❤️
(sorry about my English)
Una historia agridulce llena de dulzura y sensibilidad, donde dos chicos en apariencia tan antagónicos miran por encima de lo superficial y ven lo mejor del corazón de cada uno. Si algo me ha enseñado la vida es que los que parecen duros es su coraza para que no le dañen su corazón frágil dispuesto a dar y recibir cariño. Hay quien ve a un niño bien y a un punk. Yo sólo veo ternura. Gracias por compartir tu mundo audiovisual y tu mundo en un planeta cada vez más insensible y violento. Necesitamos gente como tú. Que te vaya siempre bien en la vida. Abrazo osuno de una persona que aparenta ser ruda pero que como los personajes de tu historia sólo necesita dar y recibir cariño.
Qué bonito tu comentario. Un abrazo osuno también! :)
Gracias, Bear, me ha encantado tu comentario. Un saludo desde Costa Rica en Centroamérica.
Muy cierto. Saludos desde Plovdiv, Bulgaria.
Que me ha fascinado tu mensaje, interensante filosofia. Muy sabias y hermosas tus palabras. No soy mas que un alumno de la vida; me gusta aprender de gente brillante como tu. Que recibas mucho afecto de los que te rodean.
me encantó muchísimo la película, pero sería buenísimo si hubieran las leyendas en español, algunas veces es difícil para mí comprender todo que dicen en la primera vez
Wow, this tension with the silence made it even more emotional and deep than it would be with this much talking.
You made me cry! I love when feelings come through the screen, may it be whatever feeling. I loved it!
Also, beautiful pictures and colours! I think it is my favourite short film so far on this topic. Great job!
I am so moved by these words. Thank you so much. This give me the strength to carry on :)
Holding onto the attraction without the culmination in any act is extraordinarily beautiful.
Realmente disfruté esta pelicula. Bellamente filmado. Felicitaciones desde Inglaterra.
Precioso, nostálgico, bien logrado. Uno de los mejores cortos que he visto.
Muchas gracias! :D
Dear all, you can vote the short film here: boxd.it/khbO or in IMDB, if you wish. You can also review it in either site. Thanks so much for the support and don't hesitate to watch my other shorts available: 'Meiying MG-01' and 'The Door'. Best! :)
I loved this one and I will watch your another movies for sure.
I just get confused with all these movies and series in which the actors are older than their characters.
I mean, a guy on his twenties or almost thirties and playing teenagers on the screen.
I know there's this law stuff!
I'm not critizing your work specifically, you know that.
I just really get confused!
But! After all, congratulations for this kindness and loving story!
Greetings from Brazil!
And Happy New Year, by the way! 😍🎆😊🎉🎊🕺
Thanks! :)
@@daubipiccoli that thing I also didn't noticed
¡Poderoso trabajo!
@@adriaguxens hi my name is chetan from England what a beautiful story wow he is so handsome cute photographer his friend seems nice shame he had to leave I am gay myself do have any gay friends I felt he was going to kiss 😘 him wow 🤩 how exciting nice to meet you wh tee are you from please
Seen a beautiful film after a long time. Often in our lifetime, we meet people like we never expected. And they change you and cherishing the memories is something that remains with you.
I am feeling very nostalgic as well.
Thanks for your words! :)
Masterpiece
I liked this film a lot. Both guys very good actors. So much is said without talking. I hope there will be another film with both of these guys reuniting or that their paths cross again.
Beautiful film. Everything about it. So deeply felt. Thank you
Este film con esos espacios llenos de silencio dicen mucho. Está plagado de sensibilidad. La fotografía y los diálogos son de primera.
Set in Barcelona, a young photography student captures the instants of attraction to another in photos but is incapable of more. In this age of selfies where the image is more important than reality, it becomes a sad reflection of a life unlived.
Interesting thought! :)
Well said: Hugo sees life through a camera, through an adjusted lens, only through his camera lens as his only way of caring, but he only lusts the image, never can he feel the image real, not the body...he lusts through a lens, as if he dare not touch, if he did he wold explode: he can't feel sweetness: his finger flips the shutter like a trigger: a photo shot, the image dead....the uncertainty of how they physically fused leaves open the possibility that Cosmo left empty inside: Hugo's facial expression is so empty, his longing splayed, his zipper keeping what little warmth is left...he was sleeping alone...Cosmo leaves as if he was sent as an angel to open up Hugo's heart, the angel leaves as he came, from smoking to sucking: the angel changed, but not Hugo
@@eugenefrankmd5433 Very, very well said
Beautiful short-film! So powerful, full of romantic moments that they didnt need to say a word, just the look you can see the passion, the desire, the good aura. Congratulation, i loved it.
may be the type to respond rather than take the lead if you will.
Thanks :D
Necesito otra parte!!!
Amazing short movie. Amazing cinematography, amazing aesthetic. Loved it
Thanks so much! This means a lot to me :D
Al fin un corto gay que no incluye escenas de sexo, ya era hora de algo desente fuera del estereotipo
:)
Pero no se trata de éso es que un varón asume la masculinidad y es hetero como cosmo así que no podría nunca jamás tener sexo con Hugo el mensaje es extraordinario de empatía buen trato respeto y afecto sin discriminar ni despreciar al gay
As a brazilian I can say I loved this film from the moment he said Sebastião Salgado was his favotite photographer
Hahahahahaahahha
La vida de Hugo y sus muchos cosmos deben convertirse en una serie por fsvor.
The most beautiful of this film is mental sexuality and it's emotional connection 😍😍♥️
In the end he shows his love for Hugo by giving up is lifestyle and smoking. Changing both their life forever😍♥️
That's so true! :D
So, it made me feel love again, for a moment. Thank you.
So sweet! :D
In this time of instant responses and pieces of work being relegated to the heap because of time it is incredible to see a piece that holds up between time and space. I felt suspended throughout this beautiful and gentle work. The lightness of your direction is evident in every aspect. Thank you. May it always be so.
esas oportunidades (y personas) que perdemos por no tener el coraje de hablar acerca de lo que realmente sentimos.
esto me ha conmovido mucho.
Qué bien! :D
El amor es no correspondido porque Hugo se equivocó con cosmo que no siente por Hugo lo mismo ....cosas que suceden
Por favor necesito una segunda parte de esta maravilla
Pain, eres increíble!!!! que manera de entrar en el corazón del film, te felicito, debes de crear guiones de películas, podrías ganar un Oscar.
Hahhahaha, ojalá los Oscars premiaran este tipo de historias. Pero sí! Seguiré creando. Gracias por el encouragment! :D
I love short films like these so much i have a whole playlist on here amd thisnis going in it! ❤
Extraordinarias actuaciones... Ternura a granel... Gracias. Saludos.
What a beautiful film - visually and emotionally brilliant.
Thanks! :D
What a beautiful short film... I have watched it before but i didn't bother to really 'watch' it... Pure story! + They didn't have to say i love you or anything.. i feel like both of them know it.
Entendí que la vida va pasando... Conocemos gente y muchos se van, pues están solo de paso por nuestra vida. Dejando un vacío y a seguir adelante. La vida sigue y lo que no aprovechas en el momento exacto (como la fotografía con los chicos reunidos frente al Mural) ya no lo podrás hacer... Pues aunque el terminó tomando la foto al mural, ya no estaban ellos dentro del paisaje. Todo es UN INSTANTE!!
¡Muy acertada reflexión! :D
Todo pasa ....TODO.
Sim, mesmo os amores platônicos devem serem vividos cadas instantes.
Erick Santiago Asi es..
Eric, se te agradece tu excelente comentario en nuestra lengua. Un saludo desde Costa Rica en Centroamérica. 🤝🤝👍👍
Me encantó, no soy de mirar muchos cortometrajes pero este capto toda mi atención...
Me alegro :)
Love the chemistry between them.... Great acting in a great film
Thanks so much! :)
Hermosa historia, aunque deja un toque de tristeza al final, pero dejando de lado eso su significado es hermoso :3
Cine es esto. Decir un historia. Economizar dialogos. Cuidar detalles y quedar pensando en las posibilidades.
Gracias por tus palabras! :)
Totalmente de acuerdo con vos.
Great short film all of us have met someone who we wish we could have been more open with but weren't ready yet
Beautiful. Craftfully constructed. Soulful.
Lo veo y lo veo me sigue llenando de ternura y a la vez melancolía. ❤️🔥
Me encanta el personaje de Hugo es tan amable y agradable. Lastima el final ojalá tenga una segunda parte.
Ojalá pueda hacer una segunda parte! :P
No hay nada que agregar es impecable el mensaje, cosmo es hetero y Hugo gay sólo tienen empatía respeto y son cordiales entre sí nada más!!! Es un amor no correspondido porque es imposible para una persona que está segura de su inclinación sexual tener una relación bisexual y cosmo desempeña en forma excelente su papel de varón masculino y heterosexual para desgracia de Hugo!!! Pero si es factible una amistad como el altruismo de cosmo demostró muy bien
Decir adiós es morir un poco!
Told with economy and style, without a shot wasted. A vignette of friendship that promises more but, like
life itself, can leave opportunities open and chances consigned to what might have been.
Muy bonita esa primera atracción ❤ y sabes que no pasara nada recuerdos 😊
La vocecita de Hugo es tan Dulce 🍭 jajajaja 🤣
Pues sí!!! :D
El acento español es dulce y hermoso. 🌹😍
Hermosa historia!! Mis felicitaciones.
Mil gracias! :)
Thanks very much for the upload.
I feel Hugo's pain when he is about to lose a love he cherishes: I feel his regrets: I feel the photos that will comfort him: I see him pull back into his loneliness: I feel his puzzlement as to how he failed Cosmo that Cosmos did not love him back as much as he loved Cosmo: his pain never touches enough of Hugo to make him cry or cling or shreek, Please Please Don't Leave Me...I love you
So nice, Eugene! :)
That was so freaking beautiful. Good job
Thanks a lot! :)
Que limda historia 🙂 me. Encanto
This is so good. I really like it. The actors, plot, the way it is filmed, all are good. I'll cry with this end.
And thanks for the translation.
Beautifully well done.For many all they may ever have is just an instant.A day, a week, a month ,a year or 5 years with a special one. Often a life is made up of these instances ,sometimes simple , sometimes intense, strung together, of loves and heartbreaks that one or both hoped would not end. You have to not wast your time together and say what you can.
Simply beautiful! Straight to my heart. Peace.
Oh! So nice!
holy shit this is so beautiful it broke my heart
I wish I could breathe again but I can't
Simple, concreto, emotivo. Creo vislumbrar un talento cinematográfico que nos dará grandes satisfacciones a futuro. Felicitaciones.
hahahaha lo intentaremos :)
goddammit. i cried because it's so beautiful.
:')
Es extremadamente bello ,poetico , sublime ,la musica sutil ... Resultado magnifico ...
:)
Dios, esto fue hermoso. La manera en la que se miraban y todo, no puedo no puedo. Que gran cortometraje, felicidades
Muchas gracias! :D
Congratulations on such a beautiful film. It was so emotional for me. It just goes to show that you sometimes have to take a leap at what you want.
Que bien hecho!👍 Me conmovió tanto....lindo lindo lindo !!! Es el placer y el dolor de los sentimientos y el amor.❤ Eso de esperar algo y no saber que, ni como o porque...Gracias pibe, sin dudas tienes un montón de talento, y un entendimiento profundo del querer, y cómo captar éso...éso lo que las palabras no son capaces de transmitir! Bravo. 🎭
Ay qué bonito tu comentario! :D
Simplemente la vida no es un cuento de hadas... No todo termina en "Felices por siempre".
This is the most emotional hug. This is the best movie I ever see
Oh! Thanks for your moving words! :D
So many excellent gay films now and this is one of them. The ambivalence is touching and meaningful and the contrast in characters striking. Thanks for creating this.
Thank you for watching it! A pleasure! :)
That’s .. one of the best films I have ever seen.
You are so nice! :)
PRE-CIO-SO.
Oooohhh :=))))))
Thank you for this movie! It is absolutely captivating! Cheers from Portugal, 2020!
Cheers to you too! :D
Que cortometraje más bonito
Gracias! :)
Me encantó. 🤩💖🌈
:DDDD
Thank you for this remarkably beautiful film; poignant and delicate.
Es magistral el. significado. Cada corto que hace España es para aplaudir de pie.
Mil gracias!
Amé éste mensaje!!! Es un canto a la TOLERANCIA que tanta falta hace entre hetero cosmo Hugo gay
This is sheer beauty.
Sencilla, profunda, encantadora...¡eso es cine!
Muchas gracias! :=)
I come back to rewatch this once in a while... It's so calmly and peacefully beautiful..
Back watching this stunning emotional movie clip.
Oooohhh :))))
Una película absolutamente hermosa!
Muchas gracias! :D
Divina y novedosa
Excelente. Hace bastante tiempo que no veía un corto, donde las miradas y los silencios, dijeran tanto, y en donde las palabras quedarían cortas. Saludos desde Chile 🇨🇱👍
Muchas gracias!! :D
Un aplauso a los españoles, que en cortos son unos leones. Exquisito trabajo.
Well done, Adria Guxens! You captured it 'ALL' in 'An Instant'!
Thanks for your support! :D
muy bonito el cortometraje, capto el nacimiento del amor tan real.
¡Gracias por tus bellas palabras! :)
"I'd rather have cavities then lung cancer" me too buddy
Hahahaha! :P
It breaks my heart...sooo much wasted time and instances when they could have been honest and not afraid to say the word Love....
I think about this short often and what the rest of their lives might've been like
Thanks for your support! :D
@@adriaguxens thank you for your short!
@@mambieuniverse5201 working on more. If only I could raise some money!
Adria is beautiful. The story and the music are beautiful.
Thanks! :D
Muy bien film. 👍

Muy bien hecho, de verdad.
Muchas gracias!
Me encanto fluye muy rápido de principio a fin ni más ni menos 👌
Omg they're such good friends!
I Love Gay !!!
Masterpiece.
UNREQUITED LOVE.. SAD BUT THAT’S THE REALITY OF LIFE..
Uy, me encantó. Lástima que ignoro de cine y fotografía, así que no puedo describir a gusto lo que me ha hecho sentir. Lo que sí es que me gusta mucho ver cortometrajes, por lo que este se ha ganado un lugar especial.
¡Qué bien que te haya gustado! :D
Necesito una segunda parte o lo que sea de esto pero yaa
¡Ojalá la hagamos! :)
@@adriaguxens voto por eso
Si una segunda parte!
@@adriaguxens si me urge segunda parte
Secundó la moción.
