I really quite enjoyed this - it's a gentle romance in the truest sense of the word - and the two lead performances have much to commend them. "Yad" (Majd Marko - surely a long lost Jonas brother?) takes a job keeping an eye on an elderly lady "Ans" (Jenny Arean) who has a cute grandson "Joris" (Josha Stradowski). She is pretty complicit in getting the two to hookup, and after a brief courting period... What makes…

This was a great movie. Unlike most gay movies that often deal with being in, or coming out, of the closet here both characters are already out and we just get to see a love story unfold. I enjoyed it a lot.
