CGiii Comment

Aaaw.

Very sweet. Very predictable. Beautifully photographed. Almost idyllic.

For a TV film, it's damn good...the story is rather formulaic...but, it's played to perfection.

It's gentle, it's sincere...if only it were true.

Quite, quite lovely.

The(ir) Blurb...

BOYS tells the story of Sieger, 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. The friendship that develops seems nothing out of the ordinary, but Sieger secretly harbours stronger feelings for Marc.
