If you've been following along with these Japanese Pink films, you already know the deal. An hour of simulated gay sex, a little story baked in, and a premise that's completely ridiculous but somehow keeps you watching. This one goes all in on the body swap fantasy, basically asking the question, what if you woke up one day inside your hot friend's body and could finally act out everything you've been keeping to yourself? Atsushi is gay and has been quietly carrying a crush on his childhood friend Yuma for years. They fell out of touch but end up back in each other's lives when they wind up at the same company. Yuma is straight and has a girlfriend, though things between them aren't exactly great. Then one day, after some kind of signing strike, the two men swap bodies, and suddenly Yuma is walking around in Atsushi's skin and Atsushi is living inside the guy he's been fantasizing about forever. Atsushi wastes zero time taking full advantage, fooling aro...
Aha!! Now this movie was interesting. The topic of an individual struggling with his sexuality still intrigues me. If done in a unique and interesting way, this topic can still manage to hold one's attention and this film managed to do exactly this. It was a very interesting idea, developed differently, a bit slow but the lead man Leo was so attractive and good looking, it doesn't harm to watch the slow pace of the film.Easy-going but secretly troubled college student Leo is thrown when his girlfriend – fed up that he can’t get it up – dumps him. He knows he’s gay or at least he thinks so but can't admit to himself forget admitting it to his psychiatrist, his supportive mother or his stoner roommate. One day he meets his old female friend from primary school Caro and they both become very good friends. Caro looks a little messed up but soon a friendship starts growing between them. In the meantime Leo also meets a handsome man Sebastian and they start a beautiful relationship which usually doesn't go outside Leo's room. Initially its fine but soon Seb gets frustrated because this is an example of Leo not accepting who he really is. Leo is scared, very scared. Seb leaves him asking him to first figure himself out and then come back to him. In the meantime, Leo finds out that Caro has been taking depression medicines and wants to find out the reason which he soon does. Apparently when Caro's nephew died, she was with him and her sister blames her for the death. After Leo's visit to Car's sister, things change and the sister forgives Caro. She is cheerful now. Leo feels better. The movie ends with Leo taking a break and wanting to do a road trip to figure himself out.
While dealing with topics of sexual suppression and self-awareness, the film remains light and often hilariously funny, specially by the presence of Leo's stoned out roommate who knows a lot more than he’s letting on. Leo has done a fabulous job in the film as a man struggling with himself, with his mother and his found true friend. The film keep you intrigued and you want to know what's going to happen. I thoroughly enjoyed the film. I want to see more of these kind of films.
Must watch and a very good experience. (7.5/10)
