Like a Brother

About This Movie

Like a Brother is an intriguing exploration of identity and longing set against the vibrant backdrop of Paris. The film has this intimate, almost languid pacing that allows you to really soak in Sebastien’s journey. Cyril Legann’s direction captures the pulsating energy of the gay nightlife while contrasting it with the vulnerability of Sebastien as he grapples with feelings for a friend from his past. The performances, especially from the lead, have a rawness that feels genuine. The atmosphere is both celebratory and melancholic, which is a delicate balance. It’s not just about the nightlife; it’s a deeper dive into relationships and the complexities of love and friendship.
