"Ari" (Peter Eyre) arrives at a hospice shortly after the death of his long-term partner "John". The first man he meets is old acquaintance "Neville" (Stephan Chase) before being shown to his room by "Beau" (Barney Glover). Now this latter man is young, handsome and straight - and their initial rapport is little better than cursory. "Beau" is a bit sticky fingered though, and when "Neville" sees him steal a vintage razor from his charge, the young man is facing dismissal - until, that is - "Ari" lies for him and that lie changes the dynamic of the two men's relationship for the remainder of this short, quite poignant, film. I'd sooner have had an extra five minutes at the end and done away with the first five, but the use of gently scored flashback to illustrate the loving relationship "Ari" had lost and the gentlest of kisses does give this a little extra meaning well worth quarter of an hour of your time.
