Really liked it as well. It's always great to see films that are not typical, especially involving intimate matters.

I thought it was going toward the violent shift but thankfully it didn't. In spite of it's POV it wasn't so overbearing or political, I believe that situation could actually happen as it did. It was good, an A.

that was excellent... haunting, intense, and suprisingly touching

I love the fact that the hookup host is blind.

The visitor sits in front of him with this offer to explore something deeper than just a sexual hookup, and the guest being so good lucking and fit doesn't really have anything to offer the host visually, leaving him with no choice but to explore something deeper if he wishes to continue along the path offered by the host.

It's a modern story stripped down to its core and unflynching in it's execution.

Brillaint, actually.

Black gay sexuality isn't something we see given much time in any dignified manner. This is downright beautiful.

The title focuses more on the ideal slowness of building an intimate relationship. As I'm a God type, I dig that sort of thing. lol But I actually wish the title would better reflect the angle of the narrative you bring up here. More than a general slowness, the short has to do with being forced to offer something other than the same ol' same in a scenario where superficiality reigns. I love that.
