Overview

Léto, a young trans and gay man, lives in a small, social housing apartment near Tours. During the day, he kills boredom on his phone from the ticket booth of a movie theater on its last legs. But where he's looking for feelings, he's only offered sex. So at night, he flees disillusionment by heading for the stars. The roof of his high-rise building is like his moped: a refuge, an escape. However, one morning, the parking lot of an ice rink becomes the setting for a life-changing encounter when he comes face to face with Hamza, a solitary employee with an enigmatic charm. The emotional disturbance is immediate. With all due respect to the scoundrels!

    This packs quite a lot into twenty-five minutes. "Léto" (Sohan Pague) is an ostensibly gay lad living in a fairly rough French housing estate. He hooks up, in the dark, now and again and is bullied pretty relentlessly by the homophobic thugs who live nearby. He has another secret though - that's one we gradually assume rather than are told about - and that's where this rather falls down. You have to watch for yourself to see what I mean, but the rest of the film really would have benefitted from a clearer statement of identity so we could better understand just how "Léto" was coming to terms wi...
