Betrayed by a smuggler who sat idly by as her family was casually slaughtered by the SS, terrified Sara (Louise Monot) flees into the comforting care of childhood summer-vacation chum Jean (Jeremie Renier) and his faithful lover Philippe (Bruno Todeschini). Though safe for the moment thanks to Jean's quick-thinking plan to pass her off as a Gallic employee of his family's laundry business, Sara watches in horror as her homosexual protector is forced into a Nazi labor camp as a tragic result of a bad decision made by Jean's troublesome brother Jacques (Nicholas Gob). ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

    Powerful, heart wrenching, searing story about a shameful tragedy in world history. At times difficult to sit through but important to see.

    Most people dont know or forget that quite a few gay men were tortured and killed during WWII.

    This is the story of Sara who is in love with her childhood boyfriend Jean. Problem is Jean is gay and has a boyfriend of his own. Sara's family, brutally killed by a smuggler, goes... read more to the only address in Paris that she knows...Jean's family home. He hides her and with the help of his boyfriend gets her a new identity. Things stabilize for while until Jean's younger brother makes his way out of prison and back into his familes life and business.

    If you watch this, and I certainly hope you do, bring kleenex!

    The blending of Jews and Homosexuals in this film was refreshing. Extremely sad to think of what both groups went through at the hands of the Nazis. Liked it a lot, did not love it.

    It's sad story, then it must follow laws, but I have idea. I like freedom of love! And, I am gay as I love men and boys too. If anyone hide to love. Then anyone tried to not hide to love. Nobody hates gay/lesibe or bisexual! Who wants equal love? It's wanting to freedom of... read more love. It's right gay and can bisexual too. PLEASE LEAVE GAY PEOPLE ALONE! And, bisexual too. I care gay people and bisexual. Who votes freedom of love on The Bill Rights? I want to do it!

    EXCELLENT MOVIE! I highly recommend you see this movie. A gay love story and more that takes place in France during the Nazi rule of Germany. Very touching and emotional movie. The movie is in French with English subtitles.

    A young gay couple and their Jewish friend face persecution from the Nazis in 1940s Paris. Philippe (Bruno Todeschini) and Jean (Jeremie Renier) hide their love from both their families and the occupying Germans. When Jean's childhood sweetheart, a Jew, shows up after her family ... read moreis killed, the two take her in. But now their secret life as members of the "third sex" becomes harder to conceal, especially from Jean's Nazi-sympathizing family. This film was so much more than just a "gay themed" film. It was moving in both a personal and dramatic way - dealing with love, friendship, duty, family, jealousy and the struggle against evil. The film also deals with the Nazi persecution of homosexuals.
