Doi Boy (2023)

I get it... but I don't

This piece of beautiful cinematography reveals some important flaws of the society that we live in but also shows how a specific part of it is suffering without us even knowing.
I liked that it showed something raw and real without focusing on the bl part which actually came pretty natural. The chemistry between the actors seemed pure and I loved that. They really managed to express difficult emotions.
On the other hand it seemed to me that it was one of those films where 'nothing happens' but it actually does. The plot looked like it was going nowhere so I was a little confused as I was watching it.

The ending didn't sit right with me and I was hoping to find someone here who I can talk about it but I am the first review so feel free to talk to me.

This movie, at least for me, has great value. It is completely different from what I am used to from Thailand with the BL line. It is about three beings, so different, from the Burmese-Thai border, specifically, part of the story goes (even backwards) to the separatist Burmese province of Shan (Shan), where life is very cruel for some, and everything is underlined by the fact that the two states (Myanmar and Thailand) do not have a completely ideal foreign-political relationship, it is interwoven with other characters and the story enriched me. Wan, later Sorn, has a difficult life in Shan, first among the monks, then in the Burmese army, he wants to get to Thailand with his powers and what he has to undergo. I didn't even mind the fact that the eroticism unfolded with a maximum of touches, which only increased the value of the film for me this time. A lot of interesting things, even if the film probably won't appeal to all viewers.


Tento film, alespoň pro mě, má velkou hodnotu. Je totiž úplně jiný, než na co jsem z Thajska s BL linkou zvyklý. Je o třech bytostech, tak rozdílných, z barmsko-thajského pomezí, konkrétně část děje zabíhá (i zpětně) do separatistické barmské provincie Šan (Shan), kde je pro některé život hodně krutý, navíc vše podtrženo i tím, že zrovna oba dva státy (Myanmar a Thajsko) nemají úplně ideální zahraničně-politický vztah, je protkán i ostatními postavami a příběh mě obohatil. Wan, později Sorn, má v Šanu tíživý život, nejdříve mezi mnichy, potom v barmské armádě, se mermomocí chce dostat do Thajska a co všechno musí podstoupit. Nevadilo mi ani to, že erotika se odvíjela maximálně doteky, což mi tentokráte hodnotu filmu jen umocnilo. Zajímavé hodně, i když snímek neosloví asi všechny diváky.
