Hi! My name is Christian Zetterberg

And I'm the director of the short film "Shower boys"

Hi, my name is David and I play the role of Noel

Hi, my name is Lucas and I play the role of Viggo

And Shower Boys is a Swedish short film

about two boys Noel and Viggo

exploring and challenging each others limits and masculinity.

trying to find out what makes you a real man.

We're very happy to be part of this year's Buff International Film Festival

and the short film program "Noise".

Hope you enjoy the film!

Hope you like the movie.

Hello!

Hi, Johan here, Noel's dad.

Yes, hello.

Well, are they okay, or...?

Yeah, well ...

One thing happened, which we should talk about.

Guys, guys, guys!

Good job today.

Now let's focus on the Sunday match, OK?

We will never win against them!

What did you say?

Uhm?

What kind of a bloody attitude is that?

Are you a man or a mouse?

A man...

What are you saying?

We are men!

I can't hear it!

Men! Men! Men!

Men! Men! Men!

-

Yes, easy.

You did great today, Noel!

Really good!

And Viggo...

you are a nice guy in the team

but you have to toughen up a little.

Dare to take some space for yourself, OK?

I won.

You cheated.

Do you think I'm a mouse?

Don't give a damn about that.

The coach is just weird.

You are the oldest of the team.

But in that case

I'm probably more of a man than you.

That's not enough.

What else?

I am both stronger and faster than you.

That's counts too.

How many points?

Points?

Are you challenging me?

Are you pissing?

Yes.

Are you staring at me?

We could do who can pee the farthest.

But not here.

Mine are still bigger than yours.

Have you started getting hair?

No, just fuzz.

Same here.

Then we have to find something else to compete on.

Are you coming?

There you go.

I won.

I won!

I'm the stronger and...

it's another point for me!

I'll be right back!

My mother always says that real men drink alcohol

but I didn't find any alcohol, so we have soda instead.

Never have I ever.

It's a game.

Never have I ever been beaten up by a girl.

Drink!

We both were.

Then we'll both drink.

Ok, one more.

Never have I ever...

kissed someone.

Who?

So tell me, how was it?

Special.

Also I felt...

... jittery.

Are you jealous?

Not everything have to be a competition.

You can test it by kissing me.

Why?

Well, so...

so you get to know how it feels.

I dare you.

Do you feel anything?

Maybe.

Jittery?

No.

Do you feel something special?

Are we real men now?

- No, you are a mouse! - It's you who are a mouse!

One! Two! Three!

-

-

-

Look at me!

-

-

Are you man or mouse?

Are you man or mouse?

Hello, calm down!

Noel!

What are you doing in there?

We have a shower.

What?

Together?

Hello!

No-o.

Do you really have to go home?

I have a little stomach ache.

But we may see each other tomorrow.

Tomorrow I can't...

but we'll see at the match on Sunday.

Get well soon.

Well, it's a little hard to explain.

Is it something serious?

Do I need to come? I could be there in few minutes.

No, no...

He's on his way home.

Yeah, OK.

What did you want to tell me, then?

Ehm... I came home and it turned out they were in the sauna

then they also had a shower together.

I just feel that maybe... that's a little too intimate for two boys.

OK.

But it's a bit up to them, I think.

I don't really see the problem.

Yes, but it's a thing, for two guys to play like that.

Well...

I understand what you're thinking, but..

I don't agree on this, so we should probably end this conversation here.

But thank you for calling.
