A poem of love. Delicate, intense, seductive, bitter. In a vilage, a box match between two teens. A first round and the refuse to fight of one of boys. And the prepaires of parents for revange.

From this, the story itself, served by Haendel music, by a small show, by sexual encounter , by the fragility of one of them and the pragmatism of the other.

Familiar cinematic influences and the raft- box ring as a drop from Andrei Tarkovsky.

A great short film for touch of a sort of Rococco. Or only an inspired reflection of love at the teen age, in a fascinating , so fragile mix of feelings, emotions, frond.

I saw it as a profound inspired poem. First for the acting of young lead actors. Second, for cinematography. Short, just seductive , in profound sense.

Dutch cinema often combines understated realism with offbeat humor, tackling moral ambiguity and social change. It balances intimate storytelling with bold, sometimes provocative, visual styles. Dutch films combine art-house sensibility with grounded storytelling, reflecting the country's open, yet quietly complex culture.
