02/15/2020 Intensely engaging. Shows cultural limitations of Poland regarding coming-out and LGBT issues. See more 06/12/2016 Well that was boring. Took me about five hours to get through because I kept pausing it to do more enjoyable things, like load the dishwasher. Nicely shot but that's absolutely all See more 02/08/2016 Quality, but infuriating. See more 06/06/2015 Floating Skyscrapers – another film school quality product. A film about an incestuous mother, and a pathetic girlfriend who settles for life with a gay man. A cookie cutter film in which one of the gay characters has to die from gay bashing, and the other has to live an unbearable existence because he’s too weak to grow a pair of balls, and get on with life as a gay man. A film in which the only character that has any self-respect is the one they kill off. We can’t have a well-adjusted character upsetting all the artsy, doom and gloom. Maybe one day the writer, and so many other writers, will develop enough talent to write a movie with an original story line.

One night at a gallery opening, he meets Michal who not only saves him from his boredom at the party, but also in life in general as they strike up a close friendship, which turns into an affair. This is a beautifully shot Polish drama which seemed awash with misery. It's supposed to be a heatwave, but I found it all rather cold. It even has a blue filter over everything. The chemistry is electric between the two male leads, but the passionate scenes seemed a little sharp edged. A well-acted and punchy coming out drama, but quite a devastating bummer of a film. No pun intended. See more 10/02/2014 A dramatically kitsch film with a really saddening tone. See more Read all reviews
