LGBTQ+ themed movie is about a class in high school, where they have a lesson about LGBTQ+. As there is no such lesson in other classes, the students grow suspicious that there is a queer student in the class. (Source: Gagaoolala) Edit Translation

Like watching through a window

My one and only problem with this film: I don't feel like I know the characters.

The premise is great. And it was portrayed very realistically. Nothing feels overdone or excessive. I can easily see why this film has been used in classrooms as social commentary material. And there are small details that made for a compelling story that is quite memorable. But I don't feel like I know who the characters are. I don't know their motivations. I don't know the source of their concerns. Instead, we see the plot unfolding - but without access to the "whys" and even a couple "whats."

But when all is said and done, many details were mastered. And I found myself going back to watch all of the characters' reactions. Of course, part of this might have been because of the lack of character focus, but the fact that there were details there that appeared to have meaning upon a rewatch, as well as the remaining urge to do so upon completing the film in the first place, is worth some credit.
