Watch Three Dancing Slaves

The newest film from openly gay, director-writer-actor Gal Morel (director of Full Speed, actor in Wild Reeds) Three Dancing Slaves is filled with hope amidst a violent and unpredictable world. Told in three chapters, the film follows the lives of three handsome brothers. Lonely 22-year-old Marc idolizes his older brother Christophe, who has just been released from prison. However, Christophe's desire to lead a quiet new life is disrupted when he must become Marc's protector from a band of sadistic toughs who relish taunting the sensitive, younger sibling. The third brother, 17-year-old Olivier, doesn't even relate to anyone from his family - he has chosen to form a strong bond with Hicham, his best friend and "surrogate" brother. When a tragic event occurs, all three brothers' fragile identities and familial loyalties are put to the test, and each sibling must discover which course in life he will choose. Visually, the film makes no qualms about idolizing the physical beauty of the brothers (the scene where all the brothers are innocently sleeping naked with each other is a stunner!) but Three Dancing Slaves also offers an intimate glimpse into the ways men communicate under extreme circumstances.
