Boy Meets Boy was one of the stand-out LGBTQ dramas to premiere at BFI Flare: London LGBTIQ+ Film Festival earlier this year, and ahead of the film’s release on digital streaming and DVD next Monday (6 September), Attitude can exclusively unveil a special clip from the tender gay romance. 

The debut feature from Spanish filmmaker Daniel Sánchez López stars British newcomer Matthew James Morrison and German actor Alexandros Koutsoulis as two men whose meet-cute on the streets of Berlin develops into something more with just hours to go before one flies home.

Before Sunrise meets Weekend on the streets of Berlin when Harry, exhausted from partying for 48 hours straight at a sweaty nightclub, crosses paths with dancer Johannes”, an official synopsis reads.

“With 15 hours to kill before his flight home, Harry takes up Johannes’ offer to take a wander through this thrumming city. Before long, a simple meet-cute evolves into something much more, where each of these men must confront their own truths – and face their futures.”

The newly-released clip is a remarkable lesson in restrained, candid filmmaking, focusing firmly on tiny motions and sounds as Harry and Johannes silently, kiss, caress and undress each other.
