Huh? or should that be Como?

[Havan_IronOak · 5/10 · 14 June 2003]

This short deals with a day in the life of a gay man and his lover. The story is rather muddled but the gay man starts the day by starting to cheat on his lover with another man only to back down at the last minute.

Later they attend a party in a warehouse soon to be made into flats. The man goes out on the veranda has a beer, talks to a woman and then goes in search of his lover in some type of orgy going on upstairs.

Maybe there's a story here but if so I missed it. As with so many shorts, one is willing to give the filmmaker time to tell his story no matter how ineptly if there's a payoff. However, as in so many cases, this one fades to black and is followed by a long list of the names of those responsible for making the film, only the audience is wondering, Why did they all bother?

It is almost strange to define this short film. It can be a collage , portrait of life of a gay couple, exercise of seduction of a drunk lady, the desire of adventure of a man bored by his partner, to preocuped by work and the fall of presumed adventure. Or a simple experimental film.

But, in final, it is reduced to few scenes , like the eye contact in train station and in train, like kisses like a rape, like the dialogue about host of party, like dialogue of Rober and ladz, like the discover of orgy.

Not a bad film but obscure intentions of director. The result, only a presumed sketch defined by the beauty of main actors.
