Gold and Rain
Synopsis
Gold and Rain is a gay coming-of-age short film about intimacy, self-exposure and desire. Noa tries on a costume, alone, away from the gaze of others. He adjusts it, looks at himself, tries again. When Robin walks in, Noa is no longer just trying on clothes, but showing himself, without knowing if Robin will look at him. This LGBTQ+ short film explores queer identity, intimacy and self-discovery.
