Tender Friends
Tendres Adolescents
Synopsis
The film begins with the two boys working in a hay field, each dressed in a linen shirt and linen trousers, whose ample cut allows the viewer to measure the intensity of each person's desire. They kiss and roll in the hay and decide to wash. They walk together in the courtyard of a house full of chickens, where Angel brings a very large saucer that he fills with water, allowing Jean-Paul to start washing. But soon, John Paul is dedicated to taking care of Angel's sexual appetite. After this very naughty wash, they return with joy in the hay field.
