Reasons to Buy
- This is the feature film debut of immensely talented Belgian director Bavo Defurne. You can see some of his impressive short film work on the compilation Campfire .
- North Sea Texas is a colorful, gorgeously crafted gay coming-of-age film that will be remembered. It has the look and feel of a fairy tale, but deals with universal, real-life themes.
- The cast is top-notch - particularly the two young leads (who give brave, raw performances). Anyone who has ever had strong feelings for a straight friend will be able to relate.
