Jun 21, 2024 Full Review Alex Heeney Seventh Row Anthony Schatteman’s warm and lovely debut feature, Young Hearts, is a rare coming-out and coming-of-age film about characters as young as fourteen who also never need to put labels on their sexuality even while “coming out” to friends and family. Mar 22, 2024 Full Review Alexa Dalby Dog and Wolf The boys’ performances are outstanding. Rated: 3/5 Feb 22, 2024 Full Review Laslo Rojas Contreras Cinencuentro Young Hearts is a film that offers a positive perspective on gay relationships, and tries to challenge the stereotypes and prejudices that still exist within society, yet perhaps in a way that is too light for the current times.
