Storyline

Olle, an introverted, well-mannered boy with an air of innocence and sincerity about him has been camping with his father at the same camping ground with several other people for years now. A sort of tradition that ends in a karaoke party. Then one summer, a family friend brings her reticent 'city boy' nephew, Kevin, and his pet budgerigar. Olle accidentally releases the bird and what follows is a discovery of friendship and love between the guy who has grown up in a loving environment and simply accepts love for what it is and the guy who's apparently been burned too many times in his own circle to feel comfortable with it.

User Reviews

It is all about this strange chemistry between two people falling in love with a mixture of emotional and intellectual activity.

Interesting short gay themed movie.

It is all about this strange chemistry between two people falling in love with a mixture of emotional and intellectual activity.

It is not a simple "both falling in love story".

To dare to tell his love but when in love, the brain needs to feel similar feeling from the partner, always afraid to go too far and trying to get back: "three steps forward and a two steps back". Furthermore, they do not share the same mood at the same time.

Or Kevin is "not sure" about himself, not sure of his emotional feelings".

"Am I drunk" , "Are you drunk ", "Are we drunk " they often say. Is lucky bird still in its cage or not?

Typical dichotomy between brain and heart when brain takes over heart : "The heart has reasons which reason does not know".
