Jacques Duron

A collection of gay short films. The 8 short films are: A Story of No Importance [Une histoire sans importance] (1980); Daniel Asleep [Daniel endormi] (1988); Everyone is Perfect [Tout le monde est parfait] (1994); Bug (2003); One Fine Day, a Hairdresser [Un beau jour, un coiffeur] (2004); Same Blood [Du même sang] (2004); Somewhat Agree [Plutôt d'accord] (2004); Prisoner [Prisonnier] (2004).

A coming of age story about two great friends during the school years whose friendship is truly tested when one of the boys start to develop different feelings for the other. At first, it seems Philippe and Claude are just experimenting new sensations, everything is pure curiosity to them. But total reciprocity isn't the name of the game and Philippe is clearly infatuated with his friend.

One afternoon in Saint-Germain-des-Prés, 18-year-old Philippe meets 16-year-old Frédéric. Their eyes meet, they talk and decide to spend a sensemble weekend in Deauville. But it's not that easy to get to know each other. From surprises to concessions, this weekend teaches them how difficult it is to understand each other and not waste the pleasures that come our way; and that sometimes, at the end of the day, we'd like to do the trip all over again, in reverse.

A camera shows, always in a fixed shot, the traditional Madrid of the nineties, bequeathing to the future images of acts and customs that are gradually being lost: it records the spontaneous words and gestures of anonymous people who behave in a natural way, as they would if the camera were not present.
