About this movie

In this beautiful and uplifting gay romance, two teen track stars discover first love as they train for the biggest relay race of their young lives. Dutch phenom Gijs Blom stars as Sieger, a thoughtful 15-year-old who grapples mightily with his emerging sexuality. Ko Zandvliet co-stars as his love interest, the spirited, outgoing, and popular Marc. In their boyish summer courtship the pair swim, bike, and run — they also share ice creams and kisses as they gradually find the courage to be vulnerable with one another. The romance between them unfolds with a palpable sense of longing, and an aching sequence of heartache as Sieger tries to fight the inevitable outcome. With its authentic and perfectly poignant tone, plus an irresistible pop soundtrack, Mischa Kamp’s Boys ranks as one of the most wholesomely romantic gay teen films ever.

It was a really good film, missed getting 5 stars because of the predictable "angst" to set up the ending but the journey there and the resolution still made it enjoyable. I've already watched it twice, it's that good. Just sadly not perfect.

It was pretty good! The shots are so beautiful and well done. Love the plot because it's nothing extremely dramatic and over the top. Super cute!

bonita historia similar a las muchas historias de personas k viven lo mismo por temor a ser despresiado por sus familias o amigos no se atreven a decir sus verdaderos sentimientos ó preferencia sexual y por personas k se creen jueces y juzgan a las personas como si fuera un crimen a la sociedad ser como son pero no saven el porque es k son asi creo deberian reflexionar en eso, a mi me paso eso y creo aun me pasa todabia y o se porque
