Boy Crush
David M. Young, Daniel Falcone
Yuval David, Frankie Shaw
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), "Œdipe N+1" (France), "Hitchcocked" (USA), and "The Bridge" (Australia).

Œdipe - [N+1]
Eric Rognard
Jalil Lespert, Nicole Jamet
In a nightmarish future, the wealthy elite maintain The Circle, a stratum of society that can use technology for regeneration, although it's unclear if a person is regenerated into reality or if this New Life is a cyber world. Thomas Steiner is regenerated, thanks to his mother, and it seems her goal is for him to lose his homosexuality. He awakens from his regeneration with memories of Kazo, a man he loved. He goes in search of him. But, was Kazo ever real? And what will mother make of this son who leaves the safety of The Circle in search of something else?
