Most gay people will know the feeling of falling for someone, but not knowing whether they feel the same way – or ever whether they prefer the same genitals as you do.
That’s the central problem faced by the main character in Mi Amigo Jaime. Dani is a teenager who’s in love with one of his friends, Jaime, but he has no idea how his mate will feel about it.
Unfortunately the initial revelation doesn’t work out that well, but will there be a happy ending?
You can take a look at Spanish filmmaker Alejandro Beltrán’s gay-themed short film below. And it doesn’t hurt that the guys in it are pretty cute too.
It’s also nice that whereas a few years ago this sort of teen short would have assumed the main character would be closeted and pained about it, Mi Amigo Jaime suggests that nowadays that’s not always the case, even if gay teen life isn’t suddenly problem free.
