Asif, you slut! Can we get some more shots?

- Why not? - I already got you some.

So what? We're leaving soon.

Are you a Gold Star Gay?

That's a gay man who's never been with a woman.

- He could be a Premium Gay, like me. - Premium Gay? Come on!

- Relax. He's from Odense. - Are there gay bars there?

- Yes, one. - How is it?

- I haven't been. - It's probably like G-Bar in Aarhus.

Pretty much only straight people go there.

Who would you want to fuck?

- That guy. - All right, let's go!

- You can spend the night if you'd like. - No, thank you.

But this was nice.

- See you. - Sure. Bye.

Go cruising instead. You're off work.

I'm just browsing.

How's life as a big city gay? Do they treat you okay?

Yeah...

Grindr isn't a great place to meet new friends, you know.

- Hi. - I'd like to use the sauna.

Number 69 for you.

Johan, look.

This is for you.

- Hello, boys. - Hi, Michael.

- Thank you. - You're welcome.

Something tells me we're going to have a busy night.

Hi.

Hello?- Hey.

- Hi. - Hi.

- Come in. - Thank you.

- Would you like a beer? - Yes, please.

- I didn't decorate the place. - Oh? Who did?

My landlord.

I haven't lived here for very long. It's still a bit empty.

- Don't you want to take your coat off? - Yeah.

- Is this how you usually meet people? - Not really.

- Do you want to come sit over here? - Sure.

- Don't touch my chest. - Okay.

Are you...?

Seriously?

Hey, I think...

I think I'll take off.

Look, it's just that... I haven't been with a trans guy before.

- Right. - Would you...

Maybe you should have read my profile.

Please stay?

Did I tell you my name is Johan?

- No, you didn't. I'm William. - William?

- That's a nice name. - Thanks.

I chose it myself.

Good choice.

Thanks.

Can I kiss you again?

Okay.

Water!

- Did you have a fun evening? - Yes, and night and morning.

I went home with a super-hot guy I met at Nevermind.

- A terrible dancer, but great in bed. - Nice.

What about you and William?

Are you going to see each other again?

If you want something from life, you need to grab it.

Whether it's money or cock.

Or both, for that matter.

Would you like to meet again?

- Hi. - Hi.

- May I? - Yes.

- Good morning. - Good morning.

- Are we out of milk? - It's on the table.

Oh, right.

Thanks.

It sounded like you had fun yesterday.

You're so gross.

- Sound doesn't travel here. - It actually travels very well.

- You would know. - I do. I've lived here for years.

I only have one thing to say. Take a guess?

- Pig. - Old pig, thank you very much.

- That's right. - Have fun.

Good morning.

Thank you.

How did you sleep?

I slept okay.

Sleeping somewhere new is always a bit weird.

- Where do you live? - In a dorm room in Amager.

- You're a student? - I'm on hiatus from Literary Studies.

So, I'm sort of a student.

I'm taking a break to focus on my transition.

Can I ask you something?

That sounds serious.

It's just because...

Is your roommate your sugar daddy?

- No, not at all. - You can tell me.

You didn't meet on Instagram, right?

- No, we met at Adonis. - The gay sauna?

Yes, I know it sounds a bit weird, but we just talked.

You didn't worry that he had sexual motives?

A little bit at first.

But he's the sweetest man ever. He helped me get a job at the sauna.

You work at Adonis?

Have you ever been?

- Are you sure it's okay? - Yes.

Hello?

- Hi, Rolf. - Hi, Johan.

Two tickets, please.

- Just put this around your ankle. - Right.

You look nice.

How...?

I'll just put this on.

- Okay? - Yeah, sure.

Johan!

Open the door, Johan.

- Get out. - What?

She can't be here. Get out.

- William is trans. He's gay. - I don't give a fuck.

Look, I don't give a shit who you spend your time with.

But this is a place where men come to have sex with men. Got it?

Hi, you've reached William. I can't answer the phone...

Hi.

I think I'll call the police and report that thing as a hate crime.

- What do you mean? - The infantile graffiti your lover did.

The more homophobic and oppressive my story is -

the more turned on he gets, so he got the long, tragic version.

I was beaten as a child, learned to be macho in the ghetto -

got kicked out as a teenager and lived on the streets.

When we got to his fucking penthouse -

he just needed to be fucked by this beautiful, young, tragic...

... Arab man.

Super exotic and super racist.

- Why did you do it, then? - It was a sugardate, didn't you listen?

- Hey! How are you? - I'm good. How are you?

Honey, snap out of it. You just need a rebound.

Yeah.

- Do you want vodka or tequila? - Definitely tequila.

- Hi. How many of you are there? - Three.

- Do you know the place? - We've been here before.

Enjoy your evening. Hi. How can I help you?

- I'd like to get in, please. - Any particular reason?

My friends are inside.

Wait... William? Hi.

- Do you know each other? - Yeah, it's fine.

You can go in. Put these on your camera, so you can't take pictures.

... but it's less than half the price.

- Hi. I'm Johan. - I'm Teys.

Are you here alone?

- Are you having a good time? - Yes, we are.

- Where have you been? - At Nevermind.

- I'll go back inside. - Yeah.

- Is it okay if I join you? - Sure.

- Do you want to hang up your jacket? - Yes.

It's warm down there.

- Nice hiding place. - Exactly.

There's lots of good stuff down there.

Thank you.

Want some?

There we go.

Are you guys a couple? You're really beautiful. A beautiful couple.

- Is it your first time here? - No, no.

You guys are so beautiful, I can't even get over it.

It's not your first choice.

I've been bartending since before you started working.

It's my first time here, but not my first time in a dark room.

We're all professionals, yeah.

He's been around is what he's saying.

Who are you here with tonight, sweetie?

I'm really sorry about what happened.

I know you didn't intend for anything bad to happen.

But I did ask if you were sure it was okay for me to be there.

I'm really sorry.

I need you to understand where I am right now.

I will.

- Isn't that uncomfortable to wear? - Yes, it is.

It's just temporary, until I've saved up for top surgery.

- Can't you get it funded? - It takes forever in the public sector.

I don't want to wait, so I'm saving up.

How much more do you need?

Around 20,000 kroner.

You just have to believe in yourself.

Wow. You do it every time.

Okay, I'll try.

- What's that? - Testosterone.

A friend of mine is giving me his leftovers until I get approved.

- In a tube? - Testosterone. Yes.

Will it still work if it gets mixed with bubble solution?

Where do you put it?

I usually put it on my inner thighs, stomach or chest.

- Let's do your inner thighs. - Yes.

- The other one, too? - Yes.

Do I need more?

A little bit.

- Otherwise it'll be uneven. - We can't have that.

- Hi. - Hi.

- Pass it around. - Yes. Just take some.

- It's good to see you. - This is Johan.

- Hi, I'm Chris. - I'm Elias.

It's so weird that Frederik is leaving.

- It's his last night. Well... - His last movie night.

- Where are you going? - On exchange. For five months.

- Where? - Sydney.

- Nice! - Yeah, but it'll be strange, too.

I'm so used to having my people close by.

What's wrong with you, Johan?

Jesus...

Sorry I'm late.

What's wrong?

Johan, come here.

Have you been stealing from the till?

I caught you on camera.

- Yes. - That was fucking stupid.

I'd like my keys back.

And I never want to see you here again. Understood?

What the hell were you thinking, Johan?

I wanted to help William.

I'll give you one month to find another place to live.

Are you okay?

I quit my job at Adonis.

How come?

I don't want to work somewhere you're not welcome.

We came here a lot when I was a kid.

My parents almost sold it during the divorce.

But...

They ended up keeping it -

and now they're best friends and come out here together.

How wonderful. That doesn't happen often.

Yeah. They also try to make it seem a bit queer.

Which is sort of awkward.

What about your parents?

- My dad doesn't know I'm gay. - Oh?

But your mum knows, right?

We haven't really talked about it since I told her.

Don't you want him to know?

No. We never talk anyway.

Right, but isn't it annoying to have to hide it when you see him?

I'm not hiding it. I just haven't told him.

- Isn't that the same thing? - Not at all.

Right. I just think...

I just felt so relieved when I came out.

- Your parents are more woke than mine. - Trust me, they aren't woke.

- They paid for your surgery. - Because I promised to go back to uni.

- It's not a lot of money to them. - 35,000 kroner?

I actually have a surprise for you.

It's a strap-on.

That's so fucking hot.

When did you find out you were into guys?

When I fell in love with my best friend, Jacob.

Oh no.

It happened during the summer holiday -

before our second year of high school.

We went for a swim, just him and me.

There was a lake close to where he lived.

- But he'd left his trunks at home. - Oh no!

He didn't care, of course. He just wore his boxers.

White boxers.

Hot.

When he got out of the water, they were completely see-through.

And I immediately got a massive boner.

I couldn't let him see it, so I swam further out -

and pretended nothing had happened.

I just couldn't control it.

When I got out where he couldn't see me, I took off my trunks...

... and started to jack off. I've never come so quickly before.

It was really beautiful. Tiny fish started to nibble on my semen.

It was floating in the water, like a little worm.

I felt like I was one with everything.

Then what happened?

He started to distance himself from me.

A few months into the school year, we barely spoke at all anymore.

If I had caught you jacking off in a lake, I would have joined you.

I know you would.

Hi.

Hi.

- Did you have a nice evening? - Yes, I did.

- What did you do? - We just drank some beers.

That sounds nice.

- I'm sorry. I completely forgot... - It's fine. I'll take care of it.

Elias just texted that he has some spare Testogel -

which I'd like to get before he goes to Berlin tomorrow.

But I don't think I'll have time. Could you pick it up for me?

- Yes, of course. - Awesome.

Thank you.

I'm leaving really soon, so I need to hurry.

It's our turn.

Hello. How can I help?

- I'm picking up some Testogel. - Can I see your ID?

- Here you go. - Thank you.

All right. Just a moment.

Would you like to come with me to Teys' T-party?

He's been on hormones for two years. You should come.

Here we go.

Okay.

- I guess that's it. - Did you find a place to live?

Yes.

Well, no. But...

William is letting me stay with him until I find something else.

I know what you're thinking.

I'm mainly thinking that you've been acting like an idiot.

I don't think you get it.

The man in that photo... His name was Aksel.

We were together for seven years.

He gave me that flower on one of our first dates.

The rock is from Læsø.

We went there on summer holiday in '87.

That's where I took that photo.

That was the year before he died.

Right in there, in your old room.

He lived with AIDS for two years.

Towards the end, the doctors couldn't help him, so I took care of him.

We couldn't get married back then, so I didn't have any rights.

They didn't even let me attend the funeral.

So, yes...

I do understand what it's like to sacrifice everything for a guy.

You're not as alone in everything as you think, Johan.

Take care of yourself.

GENDER IDENTITY CLINIC

No, I have no idea.

Yeah.

Yeah...

Yeah.

Definitely.

Okay. Bye.

- Who was that? - It was Teys.

Are you okay?

No, not really.

The GIC can't understand that you can be trans and gay at the same time.

- Thanks for waiting for me. - Of course.

It was just the first interview, right?

- What do you mean? - They just need to get to know you.

No, it's not that.

Look, no matter what, I think you're absolutely perfect.

What do you mean? In terms of what?

- Regardless of what the GIC says. - It's just that...

- I'm not doing it for you. - I'm trying to be nice.

If I don't get approved, I'll always be begging for leftover hormones.

So could you please stop acting like this is less serious than it is?

- Hi. - Hi.

Where have you been?

What is it?

Have you been painting?

Okay. Where did you do that?

At the Gender Identity Clinic.

What do you mean?

Do you think...

... the staff at the clinic will see that and think trans people are astute?

"We'd better do what they say, since they've vandalised our workplace."

You wouldn't know, because you're not dependent on the GIC.

Do you even want me here?

- What did you say? - What are we?

What are we really?

I want to be with you, Johan.

But...

But what?

I'm only just figuring out how to be who I am.

I just need to...

- Hi. - Hey. Sorry, I'm late.

- It's wonderful to see you. - Likewise. Hey, babe.

- What would you like? - I'll have a beer.

What does that say? Queers Bash Back. Yes!

Nice.

How are you?

Oh, fine.

How are things at Adonis?

They're fine. We got a new guy to replace you.

Isak. He's fucking clueless, but very sweet.

And the men are still fucking each other.

Do you miss it?

- No. - Good.

Because you probably won't ever suck cock in there again.

And you and William?

- Are you still together? - Yes. We live together now.

- So that's great. - The whole package.

But it's temporary. I need some money for another place.

We're not supposed to live there together. It's a dorm room.

I have a new sugar daddy.

He's old but rich.

You know me. I'm an expensive girl.

Hi. Come in.

- Would you like some water? - Can I have a beer?

- Have you been drinking? - No.

- And you haven't taken anything? - No.

- No drugs or alcohol, okay? - Okay.

The money is over there.

- What's going on? - Can you get up?

Sure.

I'll put this in the wash.

I'm sorry I haven't had a lot of energy lately.

I'm really sorry.

It's okay.

Would you like to come with me to Teys' T-party tonight?

He's been on testosterone for two years.

- Sure. - Be my date?

Yes, I'd love to.

- Hi. - Hi.

- What's all this? - It's for making drinks.

Wow, that looks expensive. Where did you get it?

Here you go.

- Hi. And congratulations by the way. - Thank you.

- Would you like one? - No, I have this.

- Your hair looks amazing. - Thanks. I was nervous about it.

- I wanted to do something different. - I think it's really cool.

- Sorry? - The curls are super cool.

- That was so much fun. - Bring motorboating back. It's hot.

- We'll do it later tonight. - Yes, totally.

- Who got motorboated? - Was it you or you?

- It was Jesper and Vivi. - Who did it to whom?

Who was top and who was bottom?

I asked really nicely if I could be motorboated. I had to.

In the end.

- That sounds like fun. - Not right before breakfast.

- Would anyone like a drink? - No thanks.

Thanks.

I think William is nervous about the interviews at the GIC.

He's worried he won't get approved. How do the interviews work?

They basically have to assess whether you're trans or not.

How do they do that?

They ask you some fucked-up questions.

Like what?

Look, I really just want to party tonight.

Of course. You should. This is your day.

- It was just perfect. - Yes, totally.

I didn't remember until Vivi wrote: "Do you remember...?

- And I was like... Oh, right. - All the memories came back.

- Anything you'd like to share? - No.

Someone you'd like to motorboat?

Are you okay?

I'd like to make a toast.

- A toast to being trans. - Okay, cheers.

Wait, wait. A toast to being trans and to the group.

- Great. - This is a great group. Good people.

The future is yours. And fuck the GIC. Right, William?

You guys are great. Don't touch me.

You should go home and get some sleep.

Why?

- We can't talk when you're like this. - Like what?

Like what?

Just say it.

Can you make it home on your own?

Are you awake?

What happened yesterday?

Would you please look at me?

What's going on?

No one wanted me to be there.

I don't understand what you get out of...

... being so paranoid.

You didn't want me there either.

You just left me on my own.

No one wanted to talk to me, and no one wanted to hang out with me.

I felt really excluded and alone.

Do you think that's okay?

No, it's not. But I think you feel alone no matter where you are.

What?

What did you say?

I'm just saying that it might not be my fault that you felt alone.

- What was I supposed to do? - You were being a total dick to me.

What kind of exclusive club is it? How do you think I felt?

Right.

At least I wasn't the one who threw you out of Adonis.

- How can you say that? - It's the same thing.

I was thrown out of Adonis because I'm trans.

It's not the same.

If you miss Adonis, you're more than welcome to go back.

I can't. I was fired.

What?

I stole money for you.

- You did what? - For your top surgery.

What are you saying right now? What's going on here?

Your rich parents paid, so you didn't even need it.

What is this? Who are you even?

- You've been lying all this time? - I did it for you!

It was for you. But the only thing you care about is your hormones.

Can't you just be who you are?

Who are you? Who the fuck are you?

What are you doing?

Huh?

I'm going to Teys' place.

If you leave now, we're done with each other.

I want you out of here by tonight.

- I'm sorry. - I've given you so fucking much.

I never asked you for anything.

The 11:02 train to Odense will depart from platform 1 in a few minutes.
