Losing Your Flames was developed by Sara York and Mikel Ledesma to show the devastating effects of bullying on today’s society. Coming out is a very personal experience, and each individual should set the time and place to tell their friends they are gay. But the world isn’t always kind when others find out, and sometimes that unkindness is too much to take.
Losing Your Flames
Imdb user:
The status of simple story , “a it is hapend” is the key for the force of this short film. A South small town. A Christian family. A message and a photo. The gossips. And the fall of a life out of community. The film did not gives verdicts. At first sigh, it seems unconvincing, a sketch about conservative community and about bad result of gossip. But it is, in same measure, inspired exploration of a teenager universe. It is, in same measure, a film about tolerance. And about the supreme form of protest against unfair, hypocritic rules. A film about fear and cruelty. Well crafted. Touching in profound sense.
