Frameline presents our annual selection of strikingly beautiful short films about gay men and boys from around the world. As we hop from one country to another, join us for these inspiring international shorts.

In Transatlantic, two couples on opposite sides of the Atlantic share a mysterious connection. From Canada, The Armoire, director Jamie Travis’ resounding finale to his "Saddest Children in the World" trilogy, is a comedy, mystery and melodrama based on a game of Hide and Seek gone bizarrely awry. An incredibly hot man in the UK walks the line between carnal sex and human closeness in Inflatable Swamp. From Mexico, Lines is the story of two men who decide to share their music, realizing that there are some styles that are difficult to mix. Wei Long and Daniel broke up a few weeks ago, but Daniel asks Wei Long to meet him once more in Swing. In Just Friends?, the answer to the titular question turns out to be pretty clear — this tender Korean love story of two young men in the military who only want to be together is sweet affirmation at its best.
