Martin, in a last ditch hope, comes to meet Léa in Paris. They are both twenty-five and shared their first love story together. They are both now striving to mature.
"Martin" (Paul Debreil) and his first love "Léa" (Adèle Csech) are both in their mid-twenties, and are now looking to make some long-term decisions. For a reason that wasn't quite clear to me, he ends up sharing a tiny apartment with the cute "Bastien" (Samuel Fasse). Sleeping on the floor doesn't really work - he is too tall, so soon the two are (platonically) sharing a bed. One night, "Martin" explains to his flatmate that he does, on occasion, like having sex with men but assures "Bastian" that he is safe and turns out the light. I'm not sure if I'd be relieved or offended at this point! Anyway, what now ensues is pretty inevitable, and terribly slowly delivered. It seems director Michaël Dacheux has no clear idea how to get us to the conclusion. We sort of amble along without any real direction as sundry other characters come and go, again to no real purpose. Do they get together? What about poor old "Léa"? After about an hour I just wasn't bothered. A slice of mundane life; coming to terms with your sexuality. Really valid for those living through it - not so much for us watching.
