"Brotherhood" is a potent, fiery drama which explores what happens when you add same-sex attraction to the already volatile world of neo-Nazis. Dismissed from the army after allegedly making a pass at a fellow soldier, young Lars soon falls in with a gang of gay-bashing neo-Nazis. Although the group are initially wary of this new figure, Lars quickly proves he is a fast learner and rises quickly through the ranks - simultaneously developing closer bonds with the other members, especially the sexy Jimmy. It is soon apparent that the two are far more than blood brothers and confronting these sexual longings threatens to jeapordise their very lives. Surprisingly tender and deftly handled, "Brotherhood" stands head and shoulders above any simple love story. Keywords:Gay Brother,Racism,Kiss,Violence,One Word Title,Denmark

Unflinchingly honest and boundlessly lyrical, the exploration of sexual awakening in You Are Not Alone was a turning point in world cinema. At a Danish boy’s boarding school in the late 1970s, Bo and Kim are naive young classmates, whose friendship blossoms into a childlike love affair. When their friend is expelled for a prank involving lewd posters, the student body bands together to strike against the school and its authoritarian headmaster. Lasse Nielsen and Ernst Johansen’s classic film is a groundbreaking meditation on innocence, rebellion and love.
