No matter what comes between, the friendship remains forever! I had seen lots of gay themed films, but this one was different and way better I felt. This was not about the romance, sex or the social struggle, it was about the friendship and nothing else. When one of four friends reveal that he's a gay, how the remaining three reacts to it and what are all damages done to their longstanding friendship is the film. I don't know any of these actors, but I liked their performance. And for the first timer, the direction was not bad which was done in just 17 days. Obviously not a greatest film of the year or the best gay film ever, but it had some great moments. A simple story about the four ordinary friends, and their unexpected situation to deal with. Something they're not used to it, but trying their best to adapt forth in the life. Only occasional use of a few obscene lines, so the film is safe to watch for all. It avoids the some usual gay related cliché, and provides with a fresh storyline. The laughs were not big, especially it avoids the offendable joke topics the most. So overall a decent comedy. For its low budget, the film actually looked like a big production film with a quality narration. Maybe you're not interested in the gay films, but if you do, then don't miss this little gem. 6.5/10
