When Alexander reveals that he was in love with a boy and asks Elias if he has experienced true love, that question lingers on his mind. For the first time, Elias begins to understand the depth of his feelings as he starts to fall in love with Alexander.
Bathed in the Flemish summer glow YOUNG HEARTS is a tender and sincere account of first love (based heavily on writer-director Anthony Schatteman’s own experiences), a story of queer positivity and what it means to come out in a supportive environment.
