Synopsis

The emotionally rich lives of three motherless brothers are examined in this French drama that provides a glimpse into the complicated world of men and their deepest emotions.

3 Reasons To buy this film

The men in this movie are all smokin' hot and not afraid to show off their bare bodies. New York Press called Three Dancing Slaves the "sexiest mainstream gay movie ever" made.
Gaël Morel started his career as an actor in acclaimed filmmaker André Téchiné's Wild Reeds. He's also the director behind Full Speed and the highly anticipated upcoming release Our Paradise.
With a cast that looks like it stepped from the pages of a magazine fashion shoot, plenty of buff, taut male bodies and a gay love affair, there's plenty to offer in this virtually plotless but gorgeous film.

Review

The newest film from gay director-writer-actor Gaël Morel (Wild Reeds, Full Speed) Three Dancing Slaves is filled with hope amidst a violent and unpredictable world.

Told in three chapters, the film follows the lives of three handsome brothers. Lonely 22-year-old Marc idolizes his older brother Christophe, who has just been released from prison. However, Christophe's desire to lead a quiet new life is disrupted when he must become Marc's protector from a band of sadistic toughs who relish taunting the sensitive, younger sibling. The third brother, 17-year-old Olivier, doesn't even relate to anyone from his family - he has chosen to form a strong bond with Hicham, his best friend and "surrogate" brother. When a tragic event occurs, all three brothers' fragile identities and familial loyalties are put to the test, and each sibling must discover which course in life he will choose.

Visually, the film makes no qualms about idolizing the physical beauty of the brothers (the scene where all the brothers are innocently sleeping naked with each other is a stunner!), but Three Dancing Slaves also offers an intimate glimpse into the ways men communicate under extreme circumstances.

Disappointing film

rem wrote on 07/10/2011:

Confused, and I don't mean confusing film. Some interesting parts, some very brutal parts, but many confused parts that don't convey much and that don't cohere. Very poor beginning, better middle, and very bad ending.

WARNING: SICKENINGLY BRUTAL BEATING/MURDER OF A PITBULL. YUCK! LOOK AWAY!
Otherwise, a very interesting film, with gorgeous actors and homoeroticism aplenty!

I saw this film at the North Carolina LGBT Film Fest in 2005 and have been eager to own it. The film seductively drew me in, almost maliciously, uncertain of where the journey was taking me but so captivated by the images and emotional struggle on screen that I gave myself over to it in unexpected ways. The film oozes authentic, not contrived, eroticism from almost the opening haircut scene, but its power is in the emotional relationships among the brothers, the heartbreak, the triumph. This is great film making.
