An unexplored issue
dibeyendu14 June 2019
Watched this at the Kashish Queer Film Festival in Mumbai today and I must say it is a very well made film on a subject that remains largely unexplored in film: do you or do you you not tell your partner that you're HIV+ before you go bed with him the first time? What if you viral load is undetectable and you cannot transmit the virus? HIV+ people find it hard to find love (and sex) and are rendered lonely because of this issue. The film is well shot and it certainly helps that the two young actors are both gorgeous.

Honest and sensitive

Watched because of Ben Aldridge. Loved because of how it treated an important issue in the gay dating world. And it also presented the sex scene in an honest way while still minding the rating standards. Hated the way this is described as two guys who are looking for different things, since they are both clearly looking to connect and thrive as poz.
