Love is all you need

vrflash, December 24, 2015

Love is all you need, a short movie.


This story is multi-dimensional; bullying is only one layer. As for the main theme, it could be read in two different ways: either as a metaphor for the oppression of the gay people,  or, to turn the movie on its head, perhaps, as a cautious tale about the rising power of the gay community. To paraphrase Thomas Fuller, in this lies the great distinction between great men and little men.
