看好多人的评论都觉得这个故事不够独特,剧情“太老套”。
在网上查了一下,这部短片在2015年得了“英国最佳短片”奖。
Jury Craig from the 2015 Iris Prize Festival described the film as, “A clever, original concept, time travel, teen issues, great performances”.
为什么这部电影对他们来说是“一个机灵的,独特的创意” 而对我们来说是“狗血”,“俗套”?

这部短片的制作不是为了赢得什么,它的目的是把这份勇气,鼓励,宣传出去,仅此而已。
Lloyd is disturbed by the self-harming statistics of LGBTI youth and hopes that his film Closets will highlight the issue.
“I want to get it out there because I don’t think a lot of people know about those statistics. I’d love to get this film into schools and screened to a young audience.”

成长真的就是一个很复杂,很困难的路程。
有太多太多的否定,让脆弱的灵魂不知道何处安身。
如果加一点点魔法,一点点希望,能够让它亮起来,就是这部电影想要说的了。

“Growing up is so hard anyway, and when you’ve got your sexuality on top of it, I just think it can be a really confusing time. I want to show them that they’re not alone, there are other people going through this, it really will be OK in the end, and it will get better.”

所以,我们能不能不要那样的世故?
时代是在推进,社会是在变得越来越包容。但是还是有那样一些人正在受到不必要的欺凌。如果这部电影能够给他们一些东西让他们更坚强一些,也许,就已经够了。
