25 Days of Gays: Winter Boy (2022)

Winter Boy is a coming of age drama from France. It tells the story of Lucas (played by Paul Kircher), a teenager attending boarding school when his life is turned upside down by the news of his father's death, sending him back to his family in the city, where he struggles with the challenges of life and notions of death. Lucas leaves behind his high school love Oscar (played by Adrien Casse). Paul & Adrien got naked for a sex scene. Paul shows rear nudity again later when Lucas spends time with a hookup in the city, Gabriel (played by Matéo Demurtas). Lucas also flirts with his older brother's gay roommate Lilio (played by Erwan Kepoa Falé), with whom he shares an instant connection, leading Lucas to attempt a kiss, which Lilio ultimately denies. Antoine Matanovic also appeared shirtless in the film for his role as Milo, one of Lucas' boarding school classmates who pays a visit to his room topless. Winter Boy is the fourth 25 Days of Gays entry from writer/director Christophe Honoré (Man at Bath, Sorry Angel, Let My People Go!). Sorry Angel star Vincent Lacoste plays Lucas’ older brother Quentin in Winter Boy, though he remains fully clothed for this film.
