Synopsis:
An enchanting gay romance short that unfolds like a visual sonnet, loosely adapting the director’s acclaimed poem of the same name in a festive and intimate setting. The film delicately captures the essence of love and connection between two men during the Christmas period, portraying moments of tenderness and passion without the need for dialogue.
Quick Thoughts:
Waide Aaron Riddle returns in another recreation of a beloved poem as a queer short film. This time, it is an award-winning Christmas poem about two boyfriends set in Washington Park in Denver, CO. While the poetic lines felt a bit too rushed to actually read and truly savor, the underlying passion is evidence as gentle music plays over the moment.
