A four-part anthology film dealing with homosexuality from the young to the old, this feature includes Crush, detailing the budding friendship of a 12-year old girl and a 16-year old boy, who bond over their favorite TV program and musical tastes. The young girl develops a crush on her friend, only to find out that he is gay. When she discovers his interest in another boy around school, she attempts to play matchmaker. The second short, The Mountain King, details a young street hustler who makes a play for a straight man on a deserted beach one afternoon. Through persuasion, the drug-addicted hustler manages to find the inner desires of his new conquest, changing the patterns of his sexual life, if only for a brief while. . . .lost is a look at a day in the life of a young man who is first seen engaging in unsafe sex with a random partner, then shown to be immersed in a world of drugs, anonymous tricks, and eventually HIV. In the final installment, The Confession, a dying Catholic asks his partner of 35 years to send for a priest, even though the partner is greatly opposed to such a request. ~ Jason Clark, All Movie Guide

| I usually don't like short films but these were extremely well done. To cover so much information in such a little timeframe is a task that full length movies should take note of. All of these movies got their point across but I found myself wanting 3 of these shorts to go on and on instead of the abrupt endings that they had. This was good in that they were able to interest me within five minutes or so of their starting. |
