    "Will" (Pip Brignall) goes on his stag do and ends up handcuffed, naked, to a lamp-post where he is found by "Michael" (Jo Weil). After a loan of some boxers and some gymnastics he is finally freed from his pole and they go back to his flat. The attraction is palpable at the start and they can't keep their hands off each other. Once that passion has died down, however, "Will" struggles to deal with his demons as a straight man "experimenting". The trouble with this film is that Brignall isn't at all convincing. Regardless of his sexuality, his performance is just dead behind the eyes. Perhaps the character is meant to be a fickle youth, but it doesn't make for anything substantial in a role. Weil plays the older, far more experienced man more confidently but not enough to compensate. The ending isn't up to much, either...
