CGiii Comment

Hopefully, the director was happy with what he was doing...because, it was completely lost on the audience.

Low-key certainly does equate with dreary humdrum...there really is no story, just two boys taking an eternity (70 minutes) to get each other naked...and, even when they do - it's as uninteresting as the previous 70 minutes.

Maudlin guff from a director who either needs to cheer up and/or change his profession.

Good photography though.

The(ir) Blurb...

Silent Youth is a film for misfits, dreamers and lovers. It's the classic story of a coming out, but it focuses on the moments one tends to quickly forget: the first approach, the creaking of the chair while sitting across from each other, not knowing what to say. And it's about the silence.
