Seashore (2015)

Written by CinemaSerf on March 28, 2022

The last 20 minutes or so of this redeem it to some extent; the first hour is a rather pedestrian affair as two young friends - Mateus Almada and Maurício Barcellos take a trip to stay by the sea following the death of Almada's grandfather. There is a chemistry between the two boys as they push the boundaries of their relationship; but it is an unnecessarily slow burn. Good film to look at, though; and the lead performances are genuine and engaging at the end.
