Closets (2015) watch online HD

CLOSETS is an interesting, unusual film with a sci-fi twist. It features a tormented 16 year old boy called Henry who, on 12 March 1986, time travels through his bedroom closet and meets up with a similar present day teenager, Ben, occupying his same bedroom 30 years later. Ben and Henry's developing friendship highlights past and present-day issues facing young gay teenagers. While our society's attitudes towards LGBTs has improved dramatically over the past three decades, Ben and Henry's story shows that confusion about sexual identity and homophobic bullying, can still result in self harming and suicidal intentions. These two teenagers from different time zones develop a deep friendship offering each support and optimism for the future. This is an unusual, compassionate and ultimately uplifting story, peppered with sorrow, humour and hope.

After Cucumber (2015), this is the second time that Julie Hesmondhalgh (Penny) and Ceallach Spellman (Ben) have played mother and son.

This was initially written as a feature and then developed into a short film.

This is Lloyd Eyre-Morgan's first short film.

The film takes place from March 12 to March 13, 1986 and from October 11 to October 12, 2016.
