The Dutch made for television film Boys makes its home video debut this month, and for those of us not lucky enough to have seen it when it aired, this will be our first chance to see this beautiful story about first love. This clip shows love beginning to blossom, and while it's nothing super radical, for those of us living in the United States of Repressed Sexuality, it's nice to know that somewhere in the world, people are committed to telling stories like this.
According to imdb, the film follows "Sieger (Gijs Blom), a sporty, rather quiet 15-year-old boy who discovers love during the summer holidays. Sieger is training in the new athletics team for the national relay championships and meets the intriguing and unpredictable Marc (Ko Zandvliet). The friendship that develops seems nothing out of the ordinary, but Sieger secretly harbours stronger feelings for Marc. He engages in a lonely struggle with himself when it emerges that Marc is also in love with him."
What this clip doesn't have, however, is the scene this moment comes from, which seems to happen not long after this clip ends. I cannot wait to get a copy and check this out for myself.
