Like a Brother introduces us to 19-year-old Zack (Benoît Delière), who has just moved to gay Paris from a small French town. Checking out the club scene and hooking up on chat lines, Zack is determined to live his life — and fulfill his desires — without answering to anybody. Yet lingering feelings for his best friend Romain (Thibault Boucaux) prevent him from truly opening himself to the possibilities before him.

A portrait of a young man torn between boyish love and manly passion, the film captures the excitement, insecurity and carnal thrill of youth in a touching story of sexual exploration. Like a Brother takes us to that pivotal moment where we let go of the past and swim in the beauty of the present.
