CGiii Comment

What a thoroughly unpleasant film...both in terms of subject matter and the lack of acting prowess!

Look...voice-overs rarely work, they are usually used when the director has run out of ideas!

The(ir) Blurb...

The Cost of Change is a short about Yuri (Gabriel Sommer) and his journey taking Gendora, an underground medication that alters your sexuality to your liking. In the process of becoming a heterosexual man, Yuri sleeps with Gwen (India Menuez) while his true feelings are for Rachel, his best friend (Heather Schwalb). Yuri then finds out about the side effects of the medication and has to choose whether to live a life untrue to himself and suffer or accept himself for being queer.
