Westerland
2012, German. Directed by Tim Staffel.
You shall not smoke pot. You shall not vomit. You shall not lie. You shall not die.
In the midst of a freezing winter on the island of Sylt, Cem comes across Jesús, who is on the verge of committing suicide. The two young men become fast friends, with their friendship unexpectedly threatening to develop into something more. Cem and Jesús - laconic, alienated loners - find their previously uneventful lives starting to spin out of control now that each has someone who means something to him.
