Yeah, Kowalski! (2012)
A Wonderful Little Film
Forget the negative reviews from viewers who missed the point of the film, especially any that suggest an association with pedophilia. This is a coming of age film.
Who among us doesn't remember the angst of growing up feeling we were somehow inadequate, that our bodies weren't developing fast enough? Lord knows I did. I bet we all have stories to tell. The telling of one such story is what writer/director Evan Roberts did so well with this film. Will it win any awards? Not likely. Will it help us to remember our own similar experiences from our youth? Absolutely.
Give it a chance. You'll be glad you did.

Very well done. Find it on your favorite tube channel and watch it.
The characters are appropriate, believable, and charismatic. Cinematography is decent with no distractions, and the unobtrusive soundtrack sticks with you. What else? The story. Trivial really in its simplicity, but it'll leave you with a warmth in your heart you'll hope never fades.
This is a refreshingly upbeat gay short film that manages a positive theme without being corny or in-your-face. Just find 13 minutes to watch it -- you'll be glad you did.

Excellent film
Do yourself a favor and watch this film. No spoilers in this review, but don't read anything that might spoil the film. Instead, set aside 16 minutes for this little delight, and then come back to read more about it. Don't be discouraged by the Spanish language and English subtitles, for there is no spoken dialogue and minimal chat text, which is translated in subtitles.
The handsome teen playing the main character is talented, while the filmmakers beautifully present the angst most of us felt in our early teens: a mix of desire, fear, trepidation. This film does all that and more with a twist sure to make this a memorable experience for you, as it was for me. I enjoyed this film years ago and now searched for it online to watch it again.
