À propos de ce film

A forbidden love between two police cadets, Marc and Kay, is at the centre of this brave and uncompromising film. Against the backdrop of intense physical training, the men grow close and instantly Marc is drawn to the handsome and charismatic Kay. Marc begins to realise desires he never knew he had, as feelings begin to intensify between them. Being a married man and a father to be, Marc is torn between his family and his love for Kay. Leading a double life, he finds himself in free fall and realises that try as he may, he will never be able to make everyone happy. Branded the German Brokeback Mountain, 'Free Fall' is an honest and beautiful tale of courage, love and acceptance.

Notes et avis

Advertised incorrectly - it's German (with English subtitles). Isn't a bad movie except perpetuating the over-used stereotype that gay men spend their time popping drugs and screwing in toilets. The family aspects, dealing with prejudice and decisions about sexuality are all handled well though.

A great film, the story line seemed totally credible and showed all the difficulties of the dilemma between what's socially acceptable and how you really feel

A sad movie that really makes you think and isn't afraid to be honest. Helped by excellent performances from the lead roles
