It's endearing when LGBTQIA+ stories are put in unusual situations. Football still has a troubled relationship with the presence of gay men, and Marcel Gisler takes advantage of this scenario to leave the obvious and show how intimacy builds passion.
A cute and sensitive film, but that doesn't hide the problems and intolerances that, until today, we face when we talk about sport and sexuality. Max Hubacher shines as the protagonist, delivering a mix of emotions that range from anger to an unmistakable tenderness in his eyes.
With some editing problems and small flaws in the dramatization of important scenes, the narrative loses strength at times, but nothing that photography (worthy of much recognition) can't get around.
In short, the film is a questioning of the consequences of embracing love and a protest against the taboos that still exist in the sports world.
