      Kirpianuscus

      Christoph. his Philip

      No doubts, some reserves about the song - hommage to late husband interpreted by young pianist in a church . And the reaction of public.

      But , Bytost is a correct short film, from the explored sensitive themes to the performances. And this remains the significant thing about it.

      A young pianist loses his husband, implied in porno industry. A presumed suicide and the fight of husband and family zo erase the photos and films recordet on internet space. Without succes , first for a lawyer not far by prejudices and seeing the case as simple source of money , second for powerful and influent company .

      Good melancholical moments, not bad story, two young actors in main roles , proposing decent job and the effort to sensibilize the viewer. Not special, less memorable, but correct.
