Published on Sep 10, 2021
At a house party fifteen year old Bram is surrounded by friends and draws the attention of many girls. He has no interest in them. He has fallen hopelessly in love with the pretty boy on the dance floor: Florian. Love at first sight. There is only one problem: no one knows that Bram is gay. As the evening progresses and the tension rises between the two boys, Bram realizes that he has to make a choice. When a game of spin the bottle starts, he decides to twist the fate of the evening, and maybe his whole life.
