These dramatic films feature sexy young men who find that love is not always convenient, simple, or easy to contain. Directors from Denmark and Sweden take the viewers inside the worlds of three young men—a teen interested in exploring his sexuality with a straight friend of his parents, a quiet young man in love with his boisterous roommate, and an insecure man on a camping trip who finds his first love.

Three Summers  (Carlos Oliveira, Denmark, 2006): Every summer Thomas goes with his parents to a summer house, but only looks forward to seeing his older neighbor Jørgen. This summer he has a secret to tell.

Lucky Blue  (Håkon Liu, Sweden, 2007): A Swedish summer night and a camping site. It’s about grand emotions and first love in this story of Olle, who, in spite of his insecurities and fears, finally finds the courage to express love in his own way.

Flatmates (Kompisar)  (Magnus Mork, Sweden, 2007): Great friends Björn and Hampus move into a flat together, but underlying tension between the boys, one straight and one gay, highlights the confusing line between tenderness and abuse.
