Like numero recent French telepics, "A Love to Hi" offers gay-themed drama more pellg and better-produced than a lot of what's shown up on ternatnal bigscreens and at gay fts of late. Ocsnally over-rigged script and directn, the meller, om helmer Christiane Fre, nohels provis a stirrg tale of gay male lovers the Nazi era. Polished effort is a natural for DVD sale offshore niche markets, wh theatril export a lser possibily.

This is a betifully tragic queer war film, showg the harsh reali of France durg the German occupatn as affects to both Jews and Homosexuals.
There are some great exampl of that terrifyg time, and even how they found the abily to enjoy themselv; the scene Groff’s is rather enjoyable – until the tth that homosexuals are now beg targeted sks . Except his name was already down for beg gay and all go out of ntrol to tragic.

Un amour à taire is a 2005 French film that was origally ma for televisn. Here's the trailer for the film ('s not of very good qualy, but 's the bt I uld fd wh subtl): A Love to Hi is billed as a gay love story set durg the Nazi occupatn of Paris … * a love to hide gay film *
The tragedy is that this sort of thg is still gog on today, particularly untri like Iran, which recently hanged two teenage boys for beg gay. The tenncy exists even Ameri, where hate-mongers like Fred Phelps rtely assign homosexuals to hell.
