Seven short films in which gay youths and young men negotiate society, sometimes successfully, sometimes not. In several, teen boys come out, perhaps first to a close friend - how will the friends react? For some youths, coming out risks violence. In two films, love is thwarted - by mother, in one, and by immigration, in another. The collection includes "Summer" (Great Britain), "Night Swimming" (USA), "Running Without Sound" (USA), "Out Now" (Germany), "Oedipe N+1" (France), "Hitchcocked" (USA), and "The Bridge" (Australia).

Notes
Overall I was somewhat disappointed in this collection of film shorts· No duds· No Wows! But very much worth watching, though.
