I don't care what anyone says, I loved this.
This is a very short BL but it's very good. I'm not going to spoil anything for you guys but just know there is a lot of making out lol. The actors are beautiful and there acting is GREAT! You can seriously feel the chemistry, I feel like I'm invading their privacy because of how personal it feels (which is a good thing!). I've watched this about 6 times lol, mainly the kiss scenes haha, They're so passionate! I love how comfortable they are, I wish more BLs were like that. Some people might not like or understand the ending but honestly I was fine with it.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

Thought-provoking but not a film with mass appeal
The Chinese title of this short film is "The Distance that Isn't Heard" (which can either refer to the distance between people who don't hear each other out or literally "inaudible distance"). We have the story of a gay couple in a society which has achieved (more or less) equal rights for gay people and in which people have become more accepting of homosexuality. But even without the hurdle of a lack of acceptance, can two men who are attracted to and love one another overcome differences in political outlook?The good thing about this short film is that it does not have an in-your-face message or preach anything in particular. It shows the relationship between the two men, but there may not be a clear point to discern from the scenes which are nonetheless beautifully shot. The film is open to interpretation. Its strength may also be its weakness, however. It may come across as being a tad pointless or somewhat pretentious in adopting a needlessly disjointed narrative structure.
If we consider the film to be about love, it is easy to think that when one is in love with another person, one won't care about the other person's occupation. But is it love if one does not even know the other person's occupation or has not made an effort to find out? When one of the main character yells "I can't hear," is it literally that he can't hear what the other is saying because of the noisy environment or is it an indication of a refusal to hear another person out when the latter is on a different side politically? (There is perhaps an answer suggested in the scene where one shouts "I can't hear (you)" and the other shouts "I *also* can't hear (you)".

Short but Packs a Punch
Wow, this was amazing. I never expected to get so much out of such a short video but it was very moving. It didn't feel like the relationship was rushed, it was outlined and felt comforting and real. I wondered if they both knew what the other did, it seemed like they were both hiding that aspect from each other until they were standing face to face on opposite sides.I could feel the heartache he felt as he was looking at his partner standing against him. As someone who has protested before, I can feel his passion for his cause and I know what it feels like for people to misunderstand protestors.
The only downside was the ending, it wasn't really resolved. In a way that left us even more impacted but I really want to see what happened after this event.
