Description

We open at home, a young man sitting in front of his parents in the living room. We don’t actually see the couple, a back shot shows only part of their arms.

He’s trying to say something important.

MAN: - Guys, I've got something to tell you.

He takes a deep breath and starts talking.

Cut to a public toilet – he’s having sex with a girl.

Cut. Inside a car, he’s having sex with another girl.

Cut to a bedroom. He’s in bed with another girl.

Cut to an office. He’s having sex with yet another girl.

We cut back to the house. Close on his parents’ reactions.

Finally, an open shot reveals his parents: a gay couple, two men of around 55 years.

They look at him, surprised. One of them, desperate, stands up and leaves the room. The other hugs him.

FATHER: - You know your Dad, he'll get over it.

SUPER: QUEER LISBOA. GAY AND LESBIAN FILM FESTIVAL.
