LOOK: ‘Close’ Depicts a Tender & Heartbreaking Friendship of Two Boys • Instinct Magazine


It depicts a beautiful friendship of two young boys, and how it is eventually tainted by homophobia. The official synopsis reads:“The 13-year-old boys Léo (Eden Dambrine) and Rémi (Gustav De Waele) have a close friendship at school and in the flower fields where they and their parents pick the harvest for home. Unfortunately so…“We live in this society that tells young men that there are things we validate more than tenderness and vulnerability. We teach young men to stop caring for authentic connections and (be) more distant with emotions. In the film, Léo and Rémi’s close friendship is not judged by their parents, however, other students at school mock them for expressing platonic intimacy.
