A quiet, intimate drift through three men's private rituals of desire, patient and observational, like overhearing someone's thoughts at dusk.

Directed by
Manu Roma
Overview
Three ages, three places, and three different ways of understanding cruising in Barcelona. Three individuals on a quest. A beach at dawn, shopping centre bathrooms in the afternoon and the woods at nightfall. Playful gazing, time spent waiting or the quest for something that may never come. Their first time, their idea of sex and their own way of seeing cruising. Told through their eyes and in first-person perspective.
