Lucky Fares

Not all Christmas films and shorts are jolly and bright. “Lucky Fares” is a bit on the darker, drearier side, but there’s still a glimpse of hope we tend to associate with Christmas films. As such, this might put off many of you who are looking for those holiday films to lift you spirits. I actually enjoyed it, but I also have a unique advantage regarding crossing borders and the hoops & red tape you have to go through. Overall, this is a great queer short film. Even though the story is a bit dark – after all it takes place in a jail cell where the two boys are facing deportation! – there’s a bit of hope that truly makes this short special. Go give “Lucky Fares” a watch. I have a feeling that it’ll at least bring a smile to your face!
